How do we show up to accomplish the work we need and desire?
We engage the question of transformation personally and collectively, committing to its investigation within our daily interactions, projects and partnerships. As a result, our culture is a laboratory for alchemy and exploration. We are living our questions and believe that this way of practicing – this way of showing up – will contribute to a wider cultural evolution.
Re:public was founded by Cinda Gilliland, Devon Miller, and Julie Gawendo, motivated by a shared passion for changing the practice of landscape architecture to support and celebrate women. Over time the collective has evolved from its original members and is now led by Cinda Gilliland. Re:public collaborates with like-minded studios including Karen Stein of goodgood and Lauren Hackney of Reciprocal Studio.

Why is this important?
If we can collaboratively create beauty while using projects as vehicles for community transformation, we will have learned a potent alchemy. As an individual passionate about working with dedication and rigor I will feel fortunate if I can put my skills and talents to the service of building the creative capacity of communities and organizations. This is important because we all need to learn to embrace and harness the change that is coming our way.
