cairn landscape architects

Cairn Landscape Architects, LLC was founded in 2020 on the idea that collaborative, multi-disciplinary design processes inspire creative design solutions. Based in Jackson, WY, the firm specializes in high end residential design in gateway communities as well as conservation oriented public projects in the Intermountain West. The firm has a passion for creating enduring landscapes that are client-centric while embracing the natural beauty of place. Cairn seeks out projects in wild places, where thoughtful development enhances connection to nature. We believe recreation can inspire stewardship of the land.

We start with the site, and we listen closely to our clients. Together with the client and our allied consultants, we develop unique strategies that preserve or restore landscapes in harmony with the project. Our team is involved from start to finish, and we pride ourselves in being flexible and pivoting as the project evolves. We value time on site throughout the process working with architects, engineers, contractors, and craftsmen to realize the project’s vision.

Our team members’ project experience spans a wide range including residential design, international resorts, and National Park projects. Collectively, our breadth of knowledge encompasses site planning, grading, project management, construction administration, construction, residential design, luxury amenities, trail design, signage design, stormwater management, restoration strategies, native plants, perennial design, public design processes, permitting, zoning, land use strategies, and accessibility.
