BASE is a full service landscape architecture firm with an optimistic and insatiably curious team that boasts a portfolio spanning multiple sectors and typologies. We are a Woman & Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (WMBE) and a Local Business Enterprise (LBE) in San Francisco, with another office in beautiful Portland, Oregon.

Landscapes are the physical manifestations of our values. As a species who alter the earth’s surface, the landscapes that we create should represent the highest and most elegant confluence of our ideals, our knowledge, the necessity of providing for our needs, and, in this pivotal time, our readiness to think in the long now. 

We seek to design places of peace and tranquility, places of learning and abundance, places to cherish the company of others, and landscapes that respect that authentic beauty and wildness of nature.

While we shape our spaces, they too then shape us – thoughtful design creates cherished places where threads of individual stories become knitted to place.
