. Firm Profile
A well designed space should be a respite from the conditions of contemporary life. JOLA designs spaces using simple geometry and natural materials to engage the senses and promote contemplation, relaxation and play. We specialize in urban design - high-use landscapes in complex urban contexts.JOLA focuses on producing an environmentally green and sustainable landscape - integrating sustainable design strategies through site ecology and emergent technologies. The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) established the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program to develop industry standards and guidelines to support the adoption of sustainable design and building practices. We embrace this ideology and integrate these practices into all of our designs. Native plant ecology and water efficiency are an inherent part or our landscape and irrigation design. Hardscape designs incorporate local sources and materials to reduce the overall impact on the environment. The firm's Principal, Jacqueline Owens is a LEED Accredited Professional.
