David Godshall & Jenny Jones: Terremoto, Listening to Trees & Restoring Elysian Park

On episode 33 I speak with David Godshall and Jenny Jones of Terremoto, an innovative landscape architecture design studio based in California with a cult following around the world. While it might seem like a departure from previous interviews, I connected deeply with their work when I discovered them online; at the intersection of creativity, nature and philosophy, Terremoto's work takes a unique approach to the land. David and Jenny share how they listen to the land, incorporate different influences from art and literature, connect their clients with their land in a deeper way and how they've learned about child development through their work with innovative elementary schools. The studio have also started a project called Test Plot, which aims to restore and revitalize local parks in collaboration with volunteers to 'create a rebellious experiment for restorative and feral possibilities.'
