Shavaun Towers practices landscape architecture as a responsive art. Her extraordinary sensitivity to the character and opportunities of each specific site, her deep understanding of architectural aesthetic and historical style, her dedication to the principles of sustainability, and her empathy with client aspiration all frame her analysis of each design challenge and inspire her vision for its unique resolution. With reverence for the spirit of place, she creates environments of apparently effortless elegance that meld the built and the natural, the historical and the contemporary, enriching lives and protecting the environment.

Shavaun holds degrees from the University of California, Berkeley (MLA)  and Smith College (BA Architecture).
