D/O LANDSCAPE IS AN INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIO WITH A COMMITMENT TO DESIGN EXCELLENCE THROUGH THE INTEGRATION OF BUILDINGS AND LANDSCAPES

Founded in 2011, D/O practices a research based approach, we conceive of spaces which grow naturally from our understanding of the culture, materiality, and ecology in every site and client. Our design process relies on careful listening and close collaboration with partners from conception through construction Our work has received national and regional honors including awards from the American Society of Landscape Architects, the American Institute of Architects. Our work has also been featured in publications including The New York Times, Architectural Record, EcoStructures, Utne Reader, Residential Architect, AM Magazine, New American Luxury, Scape, Star Tribune, and Midwest Home.

The founding principal, Colin Oglesbay, studied landscape architecture at the University of Wisconsin- Madison. During his college career he founded a successful design-build landscape firm that created commercial and residential landscapes in the Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago areas. After running this company for six years, projects began to expand into larger corporate and institutional landscapes. Colin worked along side many talented architects and this sparked his interest in developing a practice that integrated the two disciplines.

Subsequently, D/O’s practice developed and became a team of nationally and internationally recognized landscape architects. D/O Landscape collaborates with many architecture firms and builders in the region and beyond. Our talented team has worked on residential landscapes throughout the country. We design parks across the globe. We masterplan residential neighborhoods and urban cities of 250,000. Our passion is to work with architects, developers, and cities to bring nature into peoples lives.

Our philosophy is simple, we seek to seamlessly merge structure with nature. We work with you to shape the world with vision and improve the human experience while enhancing our environment.

TWIN LAKES SAINT LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA

Twin Lake Terraces transforms natural storm water with a 3D-printed modern fountain.

This exquisitely detailed modern landscape uses aesthetic features, such as a 3D-printed centrifugal downspout and recirculating fountain, to showcase the site’s rainwater harvesting and treatment system.

Built in St. Louis Park, Minnesota in 1948, the existing home had an open-plan interior that should have connected to the landscape to create indoor and outdoor spaces. However, the original landscape consisted of a stairway and lawn. The renovated home and entirely new landscape aesthetically and functionally marry the built and natural environs. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open up the living room to the highest of two terraces. Architectural materials are used in the landscape—and vice versa. The front stairs, landing, terraces, and planter walls are constructed of the Fond du Lac Flagstone used as an architectural detail for the original house. A trellis, benches and stairs are built from FSC-certified Ipe wood (Brazilian Walnut), which is also used for the entry soffit and the front foyer’s ceiling. In 2017, the ASLA Minnesota presented this landscape architecture design with an Honor Award for the way it “respects and enhances the California-Modern style of the home.”

2 NORDIC LIGHT SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA

The award-winning, biophilic design for this urban abode amplifies and enhances seasonal daylighting while optimizing views of indigenous site plantings and nearby green space. Located on a corner lot near a vibrant neighborhood node, this modern home is strategically set on a barely buildable site. Its footprint precisely complies with governing setback, minimum-width and total-area requirements. The windows are placed to optimize views of nature and draw daylight deep into the interiors. Here white finishes boost overall illumination levels and bounce light off the wood floors and ceilings, warming it to a pleasant, wellness-promoting hue. The kitchen, dining room and group gathering space are adjacent to each other on the first floor. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a private TV-viewing room and a large roof-deck.

This location is a transition between The Great Plains to the west and the Great Lakes to the east. This zone is dominated by the oak and aspen savannas amidst a mosaic of vegetation. Our particular moment in this zone is the St. Paul-Baldwin Plains and Moraines subsection. It is the prairie forest border of the Midwest. The design response is not restorative, but ecological consistency. While formalized, all species and their proportions are historically accurate to the land’s specific nature. Tall grass prairie, moss, blue stone, and fescues live under groves of oak and aspen. Edges are clear, but irregular and structures exist in, on, and aside the land.

24

Defining the site with simple bermed forms cut with concrete paths and smooth black retaining walls is simple and quiet within a field of muscular oak trees. Cultivars of native plants provide soft structured plantings screening private patios from the busy street while respecting the integrity of the architecture. A native butterfly garden spreads across the back corner of the property bringing biodiversity back to an urban site.

This is a landscape of quiet refuge and a celebration of natural history folded into an urban neighborhood.

3 INTERLACHEN EDINA, MINNESOTA

32

Interlachen, meaning between lakes in German, appropriately describes the land where this existing home sits in Edina, Minnesota. The natural beauty of the greater land with its nearby lakes, oak trees and vistas makes it a unique landscape within the typical horizontal plains of the Metropolitan area. The home was purchased by an active family of five who saw an opportunity in the large lot to shape a space for each member’s passion for specific sport activities: swimming, volleyball, basketball and hockey.

Organizing these activities into specific modern garden zones affords developed rooms and experiences, while quietly maintaining specific functional requirements for each sport. A raised entry plaza manages topography so the lower drive can be graded flat for basketball games. A pristine lawn lined in steel and formal plantings are the exact proportion for backyard volleyball games. Three steps up lead to a crisp modern pool sitting upon a plinth of natural stone quietly enclosed by a mildsteel fence supporting vines. A simple material pallet of white concrete, lilac bluestone, rusted mild steel and white oak timber shape a rustic, but modern landscape that negotiates between the family’s preference for modern design and the traditional home.

Architectural entries were renovated to mediate between house and landscape. The front porch is remodeled to reflect a simpler aesthetic of rugged modernism unifying the property and establishing a tone for the overall project. Dry set walls of natural stone appear to wrap up from the landscape, to the porch and onto the home. In the backyard, a new deck for parties and outdoor cooking was constructed. It accepts the architecture of the house and infuses simple modern details. Typical lap siding combined with heavy timber railings reconciles the modern materials of the landscape with the suburban qualities of the home. Grand cedar stairs create fluidity between the zones of the house and the pool-scape.

4 WAYZATA BAY WAYZATA, MINNESOTA

40

This 3.5-acre estate rests in the rolling kettle moraine hills of Wayzata Bay. The project was a collaboration between PKA Architecture and D/O Landscape to build a multigenerational modern retreat for four families. The architects developed the program but worked in unison with our team to define the material pallet and how the house opens to the outside.

Specimen trees sit atop berms concealing the house from the road. Carpets of sedge and vibrant crocus roll across the front of the property. Visitors pull into a auto court lined by stone walls echoing the lower level of the home. As a true courtyard house, the central formal plaza brings light into the basement levels and becomes the inner focus of the entire house. Architecturally, a simple white form rests on the solid plinth of grey stone merging building and earth. Upon entering the house you walk across 3,500 square feet of green roof lined with chives, sedum and grasses.

The lower level is unified with the landscape as a grey stone plinth expands from the family room into the poolscape. Quiet modernism is the defining factor as simple grids of sustainable species enhance the natural character of the site and a system of stormwater features protect the lake from run off pollution. Steel runnels feed rainwater into geometric holding ponds and gather rainwater into a 90,000-gallon concrete cistern concealed under flowering terraces. The water is held and used for irrigation of the formal lawn and planting beds. The massive play lawn acts as a rain garden with extensive pipe systems below to distribute large rain events.

In the back lawn rests a simple black pavilion open to the air. It sits upon another grey stone plaza and is complete with a matching masonry fireplace. The structure leads into a custom cedar dock and granite armored shoreline with rustic steps to allow for swimming. The overall experience is ordered modernism within a pallet of stone and 41 flowering meadows.

6 THE HILL NORTHFIELD, MINNESOTA

Northfield, Minnesota is a small beautiful City situated on the Cannon River at its center and two large hills to the East and West.

At the top of these two glacial remnants sit St. Olaf College and Carleton College. These strong liberal arts colleges create a unique experience of academic enlightenment and small town quaintness that permeate the City. This 1909 Queen Anne Farmhouse was one of the original homes in the town and rests at the base of St. Olaf’s campus. “Life on the Hill” is a phrase used to describe the academic time at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN and embody this property. The house was purchased by two professors, originally from the East Coast, one working at each campus. Their desire is to renovated the historic home and develop a brighter modern expression of their academic lifestyle within the unfortunate 1970’s addition and landscape.

54

Playing with ideas of classic white wood, weathered decking and grey stone so common in the Connecticut country side where the clients grew up feels appropriate to the simple elegance of the farmhouse. The design develops this pallet into monoliths of charcoal concrete, horizontal stained cedar and natural black locust decking. The historic front porch was deteriorating so the new architectural language was inserted and then wrapped around three sides of the home. This porch creates spaces for parties and quiet places to read a book on Saturday mornings. The horizontal structure accommodates the elevation changes of the site and frames planters filled with natural grasses and herbs offering privacy from the City streets.

The landscape is structured by welded mild-steel, grey concrete planks and native grasses, service berries and evergreen hedges to frame distinct regions within the property. An existing specimen white birch was highlighted by lights celebrating the gleaming white bark at the entry. While a grand white oak provides canopy over the back play lawn and helps define the edges of the historic lot.

THREE PONDS PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA

This modern landscape architecture design establishes a “green line” that filters site runoff and creates a boundary between formal lawn spaces and a natural wetland buffer. During the first 14 years the clients lived in their home, they witnessed the water quality of surrounding ponds diminish and the beauty of the larger waterways vanish. Extensive research revealed that polluted runoff from the developed areas was having a detrimental impact on the environment. The modern landscape solution features native plants complemented by buff-pigmented concrete, Tigerwood, brown flagstone and aluminum edging. It uses a single, bold design element, a green line, to filter site runoff and create a clear boundary between formal lawn spaces and the wild beauty of surrounding wetland ponds. This landscape design won an ASLA Minnesota Honor Award and a grant from the City of Plymouth, Minnesota for its beauty, innovation and ecological contribution to its neighbors.

Each programmatic space is defined by a circle to create areas of interest and also function as part of the site’s stormwater treatment system. An existing boulder, special to the clients is encircled by dry-stacked brown flagstone transforming it into a natural sculpture. The circular, sunken patio is made of pigmented concrete and dry-set flagstone quarried in Colorado where the homeowners are born. The two benches near the patio are constructed of FSC-certified Tigerwood and glow at night with LED lamps. The custom steel chiminea transforms the space at night into a rustic natural escape. The project was completed in collaboration with Shelter Architecture in 2009.

3 EVERWOOD FARMSTEAD GLENWOOD CITY, WISCONSIN

On a 50 acre farmstead in rural Wisconsin, a redwood clad barn, original farmhouse, and renovated farmstead marked a largely unorganized and undefined landscape. Its new life, a world class theater and music event center and retreat, required a thoughtful and measured approach to its order.

Beginning with a comprehensive master plan of the entire site, a series of additional buildings, trails, and material orders were proposed to unite the site, as well as to expand the capacity of the center.

Among many pragmatic and life safety criteria, a large parking load needed to be accommodated without changing the nature of the land, ecologically and visually. An apple orchard and linear planting beds form the structure of a grass lawn parking venue.

This is further defined by a wood stacked garden wall. The wall, on its southern side, is expanded to form a new caretakers house.

Organized as a linear sequence of spaces along the wall, the house opens itself up to an existing knoll surrounded by mature oak trees. The orchard continues along the two ends of the house and, within, spaces gather light from the south, filtered through the heavily wooded glen beyond.

Materiality is derived from the farmstead itself, a merger of old and new, made by a simple cut. Weathered wood forms the majority of surfaces, while the wood ends are cut to reveal the original, unweathered amber heartwood. This limited palette is complemented by the existing purple redwood of the main barn and the biodiversity of the landscape.

3 TMBR MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA The 132-foot-tall frame of this residential condominium building will make it the tallest mass-timber structure in the U.S. TMBR houses nine floors of luxury living units above ground-level retail space. Inspired by the historic brick warehouses of its North Loop Neighborhood and guided by the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Gold standards, TMBR’s rich material palette also helps to minimize its carbon footprint. Its envelope is a high-performance facade composed of innovative, low-e glazing and window films that maximize energy efficiency.

A formal rooftop amenity frames idealic views back to downtown Minneapolis. Users can play with dogs on the rooftop dog run, lounge on the rustic timber benches or enjoy burgers at grilled at the industrical steel outdoor kitchen. Native plants define a unique urban landscape at the base of the building and again at the top. ‍

3 800 WASHINGTON MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA

88

800 Washington was a collaboration with AECOM. D/O Landscape led the design concepts winning a public RFP for development rights in 2018. The 14-story, mixed-use residential, office and retail structure aims to amplify the culture-rich, wellness oriented attributes of the Mill District within Minneapolis’s Downtown East Neighborhood. The sustainable design was created to achieve both LEED Gold and WELL Building standard certification.

The landscape led the overall project design. A public oriented streetscape invites the community into what is typically a private building type. Numerous pocket parks punctuate the façade and a public agricultural garden defines the roof. The project is an exploration in how an infill site in the heart of the city can be transformed by living architecture into a biologically rich place, offering respite through nature to the building users.

9 HAKIK MASTER PLAN INCHEON, SOUTH KOREA

In 2019, D/O Landscape was invited by POSCO A&C to develop a master plan for a 360-acre urban renewal project outside Incheon, South Korea. The site sits on a formal chemical industrial complex adjacent the Yellow Sea. Our solution employs a full array of regenerative design strategies, transforming an urban wasteland into a model city for sustainable living.

The design for Confluence City is a mixed-use sustainable development designed to regenerate the biological life and natural beauty that existed before this area’s wetlands were drained and the property was used for manufacturing soda ash. The master plan defines six districts, each with an urban function and distinct natural feature. The districts flow from onto to the next—like water from the city toward the sea. They are unified by two important elements the Green Current and Aqua Promenade.

10 GREEN CURRENT INCHEON, SOUTH KOREA

This eco-corridor flows through the six districts of Confluence City connecting the new development with Incheon, South Korea and the mountains beyond.

The Green Current sustainable park system is a continuous trail system and green corridor that brings natural life and urbanity together. It provides those living and working in Confluence City with places to gather, dine, and relax al fresco, to commune with nature and observe wildlife, and to walk, run and bike without any danger from cars. As it flows on beneath the Kyung-In Highway and extends toward eco-parks in the nearby mountains, it transforms what was once a dark, industrial field into a vibrant current of green space filled with light and brilliant flowers.

11 LAYERED CITY BUCHEON, SOUTH KOREA

This multi-dimensional urban design concept and architectural/land-use plan envisions a compact, sustainable “thirdgeneration city” with transit connections to Seoul, Korea.

Over the past 30 years, the South Korean government has built model cities—or “new towns”—to address issues such as population growth, density, and transit-oriented development. Beginning in 1990, first-generation cities composed of apartment buildings were constructed to redistribute the population of Seoul. However, these new towns didn’t have commercial, cultural or public facilities.

In 2000, second-generation, satellite cities started to be built within driving distance of Seoul but without a highway or mass-transit connection.

In the summer of 2020, the South Korean government issued an RFP for a competition to create a third-generation city to be located on an 850-acre site near Gimpo Airport. Construction on this site had been restricted because it was part of the Greenbelt, a swath of parkland with waterways that encircles the national capital city. Heerim Architects, which has an office in Seoul, invited D/O Architects to join its consortium as an international partner charged with developing an urban design concept and architectural/ land-use plan.

The design requirements for this third-generation city include connecting it to Seoul’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system and creating a sustainable, compact city that generates jobs and features a mix of residential, commercial, cultural and public buildings with ample opportunities for residents, workers and visitors to connect with nature and each other.
