#110 - Matthew Cunningham: Thinking Carefully About Landscape Ecology
In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography we sit down with Matthew Cunningham, Founding Principal of Matthew Cunningham Landscape Design LLC.

Blending Yankee building techniques with high design, Maine native Matthew Cunningham is a leader in his profession, and is well-known for his plant-centric residential landscapes throughout the Northeast. His gardens feature ecologically sincere planting schemes and regionally sourced reclaimed materials that evoke an authentic sense of place, while showcasing his unique ability to grasp the dynamic rhythms of everyday life.

Matthew holds degrees in landscape architecture from the Harvard Graduate School of Design and from UMass Amherst. His distinguished academic record includes Certificates of Honor from the American Society of Landscape Architects at both institutions. Prior to starting his practice, he worked for Reed Hilderbrand, where he contributed to dozens of institutional and residential design projects that have been celebrated nationally.

In 2004, he founded his now 25+ person firm, Matthew Cunningham Landscape Design LLC, and maintains offices in Massachusetts and Maine. Under his direction, his team has garnered dozens of professional awards from the American Society of Landscape Architects, the Boston Society of Landscape Architects, and the Association of Professional Landscape Designers, to name a few.

#109 - Harrison Buck: Overcoming Adversity to Create a Feature-Length Documentary
In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography, we sit down with Harrison Buck, filmmaker and director at Pandion Creative. We explore his incredible journey of transforming a life-changing brain injury into the driving force behind his first feature-length documentary. Listen as he shares the challenges he faced on the road to recovery and how this journey of healing inspired the creation of his powerful new documentary, MEKO.

MEKO is an in-depth look into the macro-effects of climate change on delicate coastal communities like the Bahamas Outer Islands through the lens of legacy fly fishing guide and angler Omeko “Meko” Glinton.

#102 - Merging the Passion and Profession of Architecture w/ Michael Krentz

Founded in 1991, DAVIS is an Architecture, Interiors and Urban Design firm specializing in exceptional commercial and residential mixed-use properties. We create inspired architecture for everyday life for the nation’s best corporations and developers; and have designed 75 million square feet of highly successful business, residential and social environments with a value of $20 Billion. In addition to ground-up design, our services also include DAVIS reFORM®, focusing on adaptive reuse, where we learn and build on the past while creating transformative places for the future through the rehabilitation of existing buildings to modernize, increase usability and create a more valuable and profitable building for the building owner. 

DAVIS is in the business of maximizing the quality of ‘life’ in ‘place’. Life in Place® is about making meaningful connections between people and place, movement and urban form, nature and the built environment. Inspired architecture for everyday life involves a heightened sense of wonder, awe and joy by such intensity of perception, as to cause it to stand out in contrast to the experiences that surround it in time and space. Our passion is to create remarkable moments where each of us spend the most time: The place we Live. The place we Work. and our ‘Third Place’.
