Our Design Philosophy
The Penland Studio's design philosophy is rooted in the seamless integration of landscape, architecture, and art. We use materials to create permeable edges that blur the line between the natural and built environment. Our use of geometry and plant life results in sharp compositional order, enhancing the experience of light, texture, and movement.
