Epic work is
only possible
when you
have the
right people.
The kind of people who are good at what they do and know how to have fun in the process.
We always
take our
work seriously. But never ourselves.
We keep things light. We laugh hard. And we genuinely enjoy one another’s company. It’s our secret sauce. And when you work with us, we consider you part of the team. So prepare to roll up your sleeves and have some fun too.
Our team in their Natural Environment.#dtjculture
DTJ was honored to serve as an Eagle Sponsor for the Inaugural Dale Jaeger Outing, Golf Tourney + Field Day, hosted by ASLA Georgia! This event honors the late Dale Jaeger, a distinguished landscape architect who inspired a generation of landscape architects and colleagues.
🌿 We had an amazing day celebrating design, education, and community, combined with golf, field activities, and networking, all with one goal: to provide scholarships for emerging landscape architects.
A huge thank you to @ga_asla for organizing such a meaningful outing and to everyone who participated to make it a success. We know the future of our profession depends on empowering students and fostering leadership.

✨Meet Megan Parker! ✨
As a Project Coordinator at DTJ, Megan brings creativity and compassion to everything she does. Inspired by the communities we design for, she believes architecture is about creating safe, welcoming spaces that truly serve people’s needs.
Megan`s love for creativity began when she was young, and it flourished at Auburn University. Now, she`s pouring that passion into architecture in our Atlanta office, bringing fresh ideas and inspiration. And while many think architecture is all about complex math, she’s here to set the record straight—it`s mostly just simple formulas and geometry!
📍Fun fact: Megan once spent 3 months in Denmark and enjoys her coffee black.
A lifelong bookworm, she’s currently into historical nonfiction and biographies.
Join us and welcome Megan in the comments! We are thrilled to have another coffee lover here in the Atlanta office!
We’re thrilled to be featured as a Firm of the South in this month`s @landscapeasn Magazine! This recognition celebrates the creativity and impact behind some of our creative projects led from the Atlanta office.

✨ Get to know the personality behind the profession!
Meet Cindy Pedrioli, our Senior Associate + Landscape Architect and newest member in our Denver office!
Cindy`s passion stems from her childhood, where she was drawn in by seeing floor and site plans and imagining them in reality. An avid reader of historical fiction and once an aspiring teacher, Cindy enjoys digging into the research and data that shape communities, which helps her deliver impactful designs that preserve and enhance the community. When she`s not master planning parks and recreation projects, Cindy enjoys a few hobbies, including getting back into cross-stitch blackwork embroidery.
Cindy`s friends and family would describe her as reliable, caring, and supportive. She`s also a proud dog mom to Maggie, who has an "opinionated attitude" and a few nicknames like Maggie Moo and Mags! Cindy`s favorite quote is from John Ruskin, "Quality is never an accident: it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution," which truly reflects the dedication she brings to her projects.
We`re proud to have Cindy`s expertise and commitment on the DTJ team!
What can you do with half of an underused parking lot? Transform it into a thoughtfully designed, desert-inspired dog haven that’s all about play, shade, and sustainability.
Covering over 17,000 square feet, the Desert Mountain Cochise Geronimo Bark Park features two separate areas for large and small dogs, each packed with shade structures, splash zones, agility course elements, and water stations. The entire park is covered with antimicrobial, infill-free synthetic turf, chosen for its superior drainage and low-maintenance benefits. The sustainable design saves an estimated 717,750 gallons of water each year, a win for both the park and the Desert Mountain community.
And we didn’t stop there. We salvaged 17 native trees and cacti from the original site and replanted them throughout the park to boost shade and blend seamlessly with the Sonoran Desert landscape.
So grab your leash and check out the great outdoors at the Cochise Geronimo Bark Park, where every dog can be a happy dog!🐾🌵
