OUR STUDIO

Weston & Sampson’s landscape architects and urban designers have consciously chosen to focus their careers on creating landscapes that improve quality of life. From conceptual design and grant-writing assistance through community engagement to final construction documentation and construction oversight, our team focuses on design excellence while understanding the importance of long-term project resilience.

As an integral part of an interdisciplinary company, our landscape architects have access to in-house resiliency, civil, structural, and infrastructure engineers; environmental site professionals; stormwater experts; and scientists. These collaborative and comprehensive team capabilities enable our designers to produce creative and innovative open spaces that are technically sound and constructible, and that will stand the tests of climate change and sea level rise.

Weston & Sampson’s designers use sustainable design strategies and materials in sophisticated ways to support their work in park and recreation designs, historical and environmental restorations, and the adaptive reuse of post-industrial Brownfields properties and landfills. All of our designs follow universal and inclusive principles to ensure accessibility and eligibility for federal, state, and local matching grants.

Cheri has been the constant force in leading this project to fruition, from initiating a robust community planning process, during a pandemic, through a very complicated and complex permitting process for a waterfront park... Cannery Wharf community planning process accomplished what I thought would never happen, consensus of a design, and that is a direct result of the Community planning process put together by Cheri...

I am grateful to have had the pleasure of working with Cheri since 2020, and I can’t say enough positive things about how her and her team has handled this project. Cheri and her team has been a great fit for this project, and for Provincetown, and I cant imagine any other firm giving us this kind of dedication and access to a project as Cheri has.
