our story: Design  



Our creative vision captures the natural setting of the site.

We then work to preserve its inherent beauty while we fulfill our client's objectives.

The result is a beautiful design which enriches the beauty of every project.

 

The award-winning design work of J. Robert Anderson has received national attention based on his commitment to embrace a broad palette of planning and design, including site preservation, water conservation, and the selection of native plants and regional materials that respond to the rugged Texas Hill Country. This is evident in landscape features such as walks, walls, stone terraces, and, most prominently, water features.

Nature-Inspired landscapes recreate the native and natural based settings taken from the surrounding region. J. Robert Anderson has developed expertise in reforming the components of the area into design landmarks.

Place-Sensitive design takes cues from existing settings such as the geometry and pattern of a 100-year-old college campus. In careful placement and subtle use of transitions and materials, this firm has embellished the campuses of all the major Texas universities.

Water has always been an important element in the history of the American West, and has been woven into the landscapes and gardens designed by J. Robert Anderson. Its use as a focal point and work of art in diverse projects may make it the center of entire projects, such as at the Austin Bergstrom International Airport. The natural spring and the water garden at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center crafted by J. Robert Anderson are the nucleus of the landscape scheme.
