You’ve landed at the after hours studio for Seth Rodewald-Bates. I’m a landscape architect working from the heart of Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco, shaped by a winding path across the U.S. and a long obsession with how places come together.

Have a look around. And if you’ve got a project, a site, a half-formed idea, or a stubborn design problem, let’s chop it up. I may be able to help, or at least point you toward someone who can.

Seth is a licensed landscape architect with more than twenty years of experience. He is equally adept at overseeing construction as he is resolving intricate design problems. Seth has worked on numerous campus, waterfront, urban, and mixed-used projects in the United States and abroad. Recent work includes the expansion of Glenstone Museum outside Washington, DC; the Presidio Tunnel Tops, a 14-acre park overlooking the San Francisco Bay; and a re-imagined corporate campus for NBCUniversal in Burbank, CA. His interest in site specific installation art also brought him to work at the Chinati Foundation in Marfa, TX, a contemporary arts museum founded by Donald Judd. Seth received a B.S. in Horticulture, magna cum laude, from Stephen F. Austin State University and a MLA from the Robert Reich School of Landscape Architecture at Louisiana State University. He has taught previously at Stephen F. Austin State University, Boston Architectural College, Louisiana State University, and Tulane University.
