About

Wild Land Workshop is a landscape architecture studio specializing in sustainable and biodiverse landscapes for connection, recreation, and everyday living. We approach each site with artistry and dedication to creating inviting and resilient environments for people and wildlife alike. We love collaborating with the community, builders, architects, clients and specialists, etc, to make these beautiful places come to life. 

Located in historic downtown Monterey, our diverse studio operates with a spirit of passion, collaboration, and kindness, from our plant-filled shared office. We offer a matching donation of up to 5% of any project budget elected to contribute to the Wild Lands Conservancy to show our dedication to restoring our built environment. 

Our services include:

  • The full range of phases of the design process from site assessment and conceptual design, through construction documents and construction administration

  • Climate positive design and carbon assessments 

  • Master planning and habitat restoration

  • Site specific planting design with a focus on a diversity of California native and drought-tolerant plants

  • Design of water-conserving irrigation systems, stormwater management, and water reuse systems

  • Habitat-friendly landscape and garden maintenance consulting

  • Green roofs, living walls, container gardens, edible gardens, and interior landscapes

Marie started Wild Land Workshop in 2018. Our team includes landscape architects/designers Deanna Lynn, Joy Long, Payam Ostovar, Milla Skowron, Bridget Ash, and office assistant Stevie McInerney.
