was created in 2005 by Laurinda Spear, FAIA, to explore the complex challenges of contemporary

built and natural environments by creating landscapes that are aesthetic and sustainable.

The philosophy behind GEO’s landscape architecture is based on the principle of preserving a location’s geographic

character – the entire combination of natural and human attributes that make one place distinct from another.

The GEO team is Led by Laurinda Spear, George Fogg, and Margarita Blanco, and our designs are developed

and produced in the firm’s headquarters in Miami. The design team is trained as both architects and landscape

architects. Thus, GEO has a unique perspective on the relationship between the natural and built environment. We

are also supported by a group of specialized urban planners, horticulturists and designers specifically assembled

for each project.

Laurinda Spear maintains a hands-on approach throughout the design process to guarantee the success of the

project. Margarita Blanco acts as Project Coordinator to ensure the continuity of the overall landscape design

while maintaining close coordination and communication with the client throughout the process until an authentic,

sustainable project is completed.

COMPANY PROFILE

From Left to Right: Margarita Blanco, George Fogg, and Laurinda Spear share a mission to preserve and restore the
