Join us to hear from Irene Compadre, Founder and Principle of Arbolope Studio. Arbolope Studio is an award winning landscape architecture, urban design and public art practice based in St. Louis, MO. L. Irene Compadre, PLA is  the Founding Principal & Design Director of Arbolope Studio, an award-winning Landscape Architecture, Urban Design and Public Art practice based in St. Louis, MO. An experimental firm that prioritizes high-quality design, ecological resilience, and social-equity; Arbolope’s civic-centered work ranges from intimate public spaces such as Love Bank Park on Cherokee Street, to large-scale masterplans including for the new Jefferson City Botanical Garden in Missouri's capital city. 
Current projects include the Expansion of the America's Center Convention Complex, Wildcare Park for the Saint Louis Zoo, as well as the Transformation of the St. Louis Community College Meramec Campus.

Irene holds a MLA from Washington University in St. Louis where she also teaches as a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts.

In their own words, "A landscape is both a journey and a destination. It’s where we walk, sit, stand, and kneel. It’s where we’re going and how we’re getting there. Here and there we meet to find common ground.

We believe that public places must amplify the quieter voices and tell new stories. We believe that our streets should do more than connect us and that open spaces can open minds as well as hearts. We believe that landscapes should serve all persons, human and non-human alike – now and in the future.

At Arbolope Studio we strive to create innovative and impactful landscapes that balance high-quality design, social equity, and ecological resilience. Our goal is simple: to create a happier, healthier, and more connected world."
