JESSI MARQUARDT

With over 15 years of experience, Jessi Marquardt is the owner and lead designer of Larchspur Design. As a native of the Pacific Northwest, a love for nature and its importance was rooted in her at an early age. Jessi understands the significance of creating spaces where people can feel connected to the natural world and its ecosystems, and how to converge this bond. Being a mom and wife, she values the importance of outdoor places that promote learning, health, and enjoyment for all users. Larchspur Design is committed to creating such spaces, be it a public playground, an educational facility, or a vibrant residential landscape. Jessi is a Living Future Accredited (LFA) professional, through the International Living Future Institute and is dedicated to designing with forward-thinking sustainable design practices. She is also a member of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) and donates her design services to raise funds for Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital and education programs that teach young women about STEM related careers.
