CAROLYN BARAKO

Carolyn brings nearly 20 years of experience in landscape architecture and urban design across both the public and private sectors. Her design approach thoughtfully integrates a site's existing character and conditions with each client's vision, creating landscapes that are both functional and deeply personal. She values the collaborative design process and enjoys working closely with clients to craft meaningful outdoor spaces where families can gather, connect, and create lasting memories.

This firsthand understanding of how designs are executed in the field allows her to anticipate challenges early in the design process and innovative, well-coordinated solutions. Her unique combination of design expertise and construction knowledge strengthens her effectiveness as both a designer and project manager.
