Molly Somes
ms@ConnectOneDesign.com
Don’t let Molly’s quiet and easy nature fool you; it’s rooted in a deep connection to place and relationships. We’ve seen this soft-spoken designer coax stories out of the youngest and the oldest and bring a tear to the eye of the hardened. Born with a desire to help improve our world, Molly spent her formative years travelling and gaining as much worldly experience as possible. Her love of place comes from her unique resume working as a ski instructor, a landscaper and in sustainable agriculture.
Combine these experiences with an undergraduate degree in recreation and tourism, a Master of Landscape Architecture and a GIS certification, and Molly brings forth landscapes of enduring quality. Her humbleness drives her belief that landscapes are a performance of intricate, inter-acting relationships and our job is to aid in the communication of these actors in order to create a lasting performance. She is committed to be the eyes and ears of the unheard as we maintain a practice which is democratic, adaptive and creatively progressive.
