You may note a thematic fusion of theoretical framework with built elements running through my portfolio. While I am patently aware that a degree in the humanities does not give me any immediate insight into the variety of clients and cultures we work with, it does give me tools to closely read, listen to, and communicate with people and place in order to daylight the poetic undercurrents in landscape. You may note that my design approach and process is heavily based on context–physical, ecological, and cultural.
I was first introduced to your work installing Olympic Village's Hinge Park with TYBO construction in 2009. Since then, I have enjoyed watching it flourish into a sublime biologically and culturally diverse jewel of greenspace. Your work blends the context of civic urban space with the beauty of natural systems in ways that are inspirational and of UBC's Faculty of Arts, with a BA in literature and philosophy. This lends me an interest in culture, the poetry of landscape, and the oneiric mystery of the sublime. I spent eight years obtaining my BA, while apprenticing in landscape construction. My education is broadly varied, ranging from the humanities and fine arts, to biology and computer science. With experience in academia and in the working world, I aim to fuse the academic urge to ideate with a real desire for grounded, concrete results.
My five years of experience in event management and sales has given me skill in data management and professional communication, but also honed my ability to employ my warm and candid personality to build a sense of trust and camaraderie. Friendship is a necessary component of teamwork, not a side-effect. I also maintain a volunteer roundabout garden at Ontario and 14th (a great testing ground for a variety of planting schemes and techniques).
Irefreshing.amanalumnus
Despite my eleven years of post secondary education, I remain passionately autodidactic, and strive to future-proof myself. In SALA’s MLA program, I pushed my capacity as a designer, building upon the knowledge in my head and hands to grasp the approaches and software native to our discipline. I focused on what I believe is the future of our field, 3D modelling, with a specialty in parametric design. I hope my portfolio speaks to that effort and earned skill.
I am passionate about l andscape architecture, and I take my work seriously and personally. I am sharp, nimble-minded, and adaptable, and I believe that efficiency and detail are never mutually exclusive. The following work is included for your review. I would be delighted to meet with you to discuss how we might work together to improve our shared aesthetic, ecological, and cultural reality.
COVER LETTER Margot Long, Grant Brumpton, Derek Lee, Katya Yushmanova, and Jason Wegman,
Thank you for your time and consideration.
-Beau Wuthrich
The thanks of passing cyclists and stroller-pushers in my community gives me a deep sense of satisfaction.

All of this draws me to the work of improving our shared world and deepening our shared reality through our architectural craft, particularly in our present time of ecological and societal anxiety.
I am a mature, bilingual (English + French) applicant, looking to begin my career in landscape architecture. I would love to work with you to better our shared environment.
Landscape design history essay competition.
Landscape affects ecological change while fostering feelings of stewardship and care. It can create space for mutual empathy among disparate people. It also has the potential to ground, shock, elate, mystify, and potentially save us from alienation.

The community-built Storyteller Project celebrates the recently-minted Dasiqox tribal park, fostering agency and selfreliance through respectful cultural tourism. Youth are connected with elders, marrying indigenous construction techniques and materials found in the vital land of Tsilhqot'in, reclaiming a cut block by building trails, a campsite, and a monumental viewing platform situated within the site that gently guides views of the two sacred mountains.

This project, a capstone of a six-credit planting deign course, was an exploration of the aesthetic synthesis of a public water feature (the PNE grounds' Italian gardens), with a public ecosystem service (rain gardens, which are currently gaining traction in Vancouver). Drawing on my past horticultural knowledge, research, data management, and parametric modelling, this project used drought and flood tolerant species to model drifting plantings in a grass-heavy synthesis of natural planting and clipped Italian garden.

With rising tides in mind, this project softens Vancouver’s antagonistic relationship with its shorelines by casting water and urban wildlife as stakeholders and agents of design. This provides opportunities for interspecies interactions within our city. The project uses dramatic topography and porous, woven, and sealife-harboring materials to interface with and register daily tides and sea level rise, while honoring False Creek’s past as an abundant eelgrass mudflat in Coast Salish territories.

Partnered with the YMCA, BC Cancer Society, and UBC's Pro Eco team, this project resulted in various built interventions for the children of one of East Vancouver's YMCA childcare centres. Native plantings, tree cookie pathways, bamboo water play, tremendous parametrically-optimized shade sails, and a medium-sized piece of parametrically designed play equipment called the Crawly Cubby, coalesced into novel built work that addressed lacking elements and improved the play experience.

I contributed to a research project focused on the queer history and young life of Christopher Tunnard, a key figure in modernist landscape architecture who inspired Garrett Eckbo, Laurence Halprin, Dan Kiley, and James Rose. Working under faculty at UBC, I analyzed the early writings of Tunnard, and produced an accurate model of the mansion he shared with his lover, Arthur Slessinger, along with several drawings to illustrate an article to be published in the Journal of Landscape Architecture.
