Aspen Landscape Architecture & Design

ABOUT
Stan Clauson Associates began in 1978 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The firm has long been involved in public sector projects, such as comprehensive and historic preservation plans. We have provided design and planning services for a full range of projects, from fine residences to hotel development, including all phases of permit process assistance. At this time, firm Principal, Stan Clauson, is not taking on new projects and is dedicated to completing several on-going projects before retirement. We are grateful to the many clients we have had over the years and, especially, to the many young professionals and associates who worked with us on a wide range of projects.

 
 
Aspen Residential, Commercial, & Resort Landscape Architecture

APPROACH
Our work has involved responsible and sustainable design of resort and small community environments. We have taken projects through the land use permit process that we believe will enhance the quality of life for a community, and we worked closely with community groups and elected officials to craft workable compromises to bring a vision into a reality.

When we shape the land to live & eat & build communities, we are nature too.
— Dan Kiley, one of America's premier landscape architects

Work on affordable housing in Vermont won recognition from the U.S. Dept. of Housing & Urban Development. SCA was re-formed in 1998, when Stan left his role as Aspen’s Community Development Director. Our work has included public planning projects and development support for private clients, winning awards from Aspen’s Historic Preservation Commission among others.
