Kara Weaver is a landscape architect with nearly 20 years of experience designing and documenting public projects. She brings clarity to projects that pose complex challenges, require intensive coordination between disciplines, and provide opportunities for innovative and elegant problem solving. Kara mentors emerging colleagues in all aspects of the design process from conceptual vision plans to precise and thoughtful detailing. Her design approach is grounded in her academic studies in anthropology, archeology, and textiles: a background that focuses her exploration of the layers of meaning inherent in every place and their expression in the design of the physical world.
