Talk to a few landscape architects and you’ll quickly discover we’re not in it for the glory. We’re generally humble. Mostly introverts by nature. We’re technically skilled and immensely capable designers, sure, but where we have found we can make the biggest difference is as collaborators and facilitators.

At Dix.Hite, we’re more than just the sum of our parts. And while our people are integral to our work, it’s our central ethos –– designing for life –– that unifies and empowers us.

Drumroll, please … Chris Hite, our president and CEO, was recently elevated to the American Society of Landscape Architects 2021 Council of Fellows—one of only 35 professionals nationwide to receive this honor.

What do you get when you prioritize people over cars? That’s a question we address every year when we participate in Park(ing) Day, an annual event where citizens, artists and activists collaborate to transform parking spaces into temporary public places.
