The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) this year has selected 50 members to elevate as ASLA Fellows for their exceptional contributions to the landscape architecture profession and society at large.

“The 2025 Class of ASLA Fellows reflects the very best of landscape architecture—visionary leaders whose work uplifts communities, restores ecosystems, and advances climate-ready design,” said ASLA President Kona Gray, FASLA, PLA. “Their careers are defined by excellence, service, and a deep commitment to shaping a more inclusive, resilient, and beautiful world. On behalf of the profession, I congratulate this year’s Fellows and thank them for raising the bar for what landscape architects can achieve.”

“Each year, the announcement of a new class of ASLA Fellows is a powerful celebration of impact, innovation, and leadership in landscape architecture,” said ASLA CEO Torey Carter-Conneen (@toreycarter). “The 2025 Class of Fellows has transformed places and policies, inspired future leaders, and advanced equity, resilience, and beauty in the built and natural world. We are honored to recognize their extraordinary contributions to the profession and to society.”

ASLA Fellows will be elevated during a special investiture ceremony at the 2025 Conference on Landscape Architecture, which will be held in New Orleans, LA, October 10-13, 2025.
