Formerly Bernard Trainor + Associates, we are now Ground Studio, honoring the collaboration inherent in our team of artists and designers working together to envision and craft contextual California landscapes. We thoughtfully balance the character of the land, the identity of the architecture, and the lifestyles of people who live there. Designing in a range of scales from compact urban gardens to expansive rural sites, we listen and observe to ensure the essence of the place is revealed. Our designs inspire a deep connection with the land.
