Grow with Us

We believe in practicing exceptional landscape architecture that responds to the site, its architecture and the people who live, work and play within it. And in a family-first work environment that balances home life with work life.

As a team of 30, we offer the opportunity to have a holistic, hands-on experience with a project from concept to completion. That includes meeting with clients, getting your hands dirty on site, presenting your ideas, and the satisfaction of seeing your project come to life. We are large enough to work on truly exciting projects with top architects and designers, and small enough to provide cross-pollination between teams, offices and studios.

As a growing firm, we have expanding opportunities to work on a variety of project types and scales. Current project types include hospitality, residential, retail, international multifamily residential, institutional, cultural, and resorts.

Life at Hollander

We gather often to share ideas and socialize – both formally and informally. From weekly office-wide meetings to Hollander Healthy Hour events after work, we create a variety of places, times and ways to build community and learn from one another and the world beyond. We host learning events in our offices, offer a travel sabbatical, and provide licensure support. We support engagement in a range of community organizations and efforts like the Hollander Design Fellowship and the New York Restoration Project

See the kinds of projects we work on in Architectural DigestDesign BoomCity Lab, and The Wall Street Journal. Watch our recent presentation on the imperative of biodiversity in residential landscapes. Find out more about our projects, interests and team on our InstagramLinkedIn and our news page.

Where we Work

Our main office locations are in the heart of two dynamic cities: New York and Chicago. Our Manhattan headquarters in Union Square is an easy train ride from anywhere in the area and steps from the famous Greenmarket. In Chicago, we’re nestled up against the Sears (ahem, Willis!) Tower and surrounded by enviable lunch options, green spaces, and a wealth of city and regional transit options.
