For Altgelt & Associates’ Thomas Altgelt, [...]]]> Luxe Magazine, which focuses on luxury residential architecture and design, recently featured some of my landscape design work with water features in their “Style Makers” section. This landscape design is located in the Lake of the Pines gated community just North of Boulder, Colorado. Here is a quote from this article:

For Altgelt & Associates’ Thomas Altgelt, co-creating with nature remains as important as understanding the soul and spirit of nature itself and the manifestation of that spirit in water. “We generally think of water as chaotic, but it is actually tremendously sensitive,” he says. Although Altgelt has realized his special brand of design in many European projects, it’s the mutually collective creative process at his small, Boulder-based firm that produces his most harmonious work. Altgelt and his team breathe passion into the natural integrity of the landscape in accordance with the archetype of each garden, while incorporating the clients’ needs and ideals. Says Altgelt, “It’s not only sensitizing our clients to their own wishes and desires, but bringing those needs into harmony with the piece of land that has attracted them.” It’s through this unique collaboration that Altgelt succeeds in truly rethinking water as the element of life.
