Charles Anderson Landscape Architecture
In 1994, Anderson established his self-named firm, Charles Anderson Landscape Architecture. Based in Seattle, Washington, it became a well-known firm responsible for several landscape projects.
While the primary focus area of the studio is the Pacific Northwest, projects have ranged from New York to California to Alaska. The firm has completed over 25 community-based projects within the Seattle metropolitan area.
Notable projects include providing landscape design for the Anchorage Museum expansion, as well as Seattle’s 8.5 acres (3.4 ha) Olympic Sculpture Park, Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, Manhattan’s Arthur Ross Terrace, and the Bellingham Art and Children’s Museum.
Some neighborhood park projects include the Roxhill Wetland and Bog Park in West Seattle and the restoration of the 500 Area of Discovery Park, both of which received Merit Awards from the Washington Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects.

“I have seen in this revolution a circular motion of the sovereign power through two usurpers, father and son, to the late King to this his son. For ... it moved from King Charles I to the Long Parliament; from thence to the Rump; from the Rump to Oliver Cromwell; and then back again from Richard Cromwell to the Rump; then to the Long Parliament; and thence to King Charles, where long may it remain.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“Art to me was a state, it didn’t need to be an accomplishment. By any of the standards of production, achievement, performance, I was not an artist. But I always thought of myself as one.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

Reaching across the landscape of hysteria,”

“And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad wind’s night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
