Bishop Land Design, LLC

Bishop Land Design, known as BLD, is a landscape architecture studio in Quincy that grounds its work in human ecology: the study of how people interact with their natural, social and built environments. The firm designs hybrid landscapes and living, ecologically sound infrastructure that serve several uses at once, treating open space and blue-green infrastructure as resources that can deliver social, ecological and economic benefits for cities and towns.

The team is made up of landscape architects and design researchers with experience planning, designing and implementing strategic master plans and ecological infrastructure on challenging sites. Each project starts from the client’s goals and the cultural and ecological context of the site, and BLD builds inclusive public engagement into its process so community voices are heard throughout. The studio describes itself as collaborative, working through open dialogue with its team and clients.
