If gardens are mirrors of culture, and our present culture is a hot mess, how might we go about making gardens that reject the materially consumptive and ecology destroying power of late-stage capitalism? TERREMOTO believes that through self-investigation into our relationships to Land, Labor, Materials and Ecology, we can forge a new path and paradigm and create landscapes that are in service of the whole.
David Godshall is a landscape architect, horticultural theorist and the co-founder and design director of the TERREMOTO office in Los Angeles, which he founded with Alain Peauroi in 2012. Over the past twelve years, TERREMOTO has grown quickly and established itself as a driving force in the world of landscape architecture. David’s strategic approach to design is inherently rooted in philosophy and the idea that ecology, horticulture and landscape have transformative physical and spiritual impacts upon humans and non-humans.
David received a master’s degree Cum Laude from UC Berkeley after receiving a BA Cum Laude from UC Santa Barbara. He holds CLARB registration in California and is an ASLA Olmsted Scholar, representing UC Berkeley’s selection the year of his graduation. Prior to founding Terremoto, David worked at Peter Walker and Partners in Berkeley, California and was a project manager at Surface Design in San Francisco.
Terremoto’s work has been published in Architectural Digest, Landscape Architecture Magazine, Sunset Magazine, The New York Times T Magazine, World Landscape Architecture Magazine, Landezine, Elle Decor and Gardenista.
David has served as a guest critic in the landscape architecture departments UC Berkeley, USC, and lectured recently at Woodbury University, Auburn University, the Harvard GSD, The Rhode Island School of Design, UC Berkeley and w as
