Thanks for Helping Us Grow
We want to take a moment to thank the people who make our work possible—our clients, partners, and community collaborators. This year’s Earth Day gift included a simple message: “Thanks for helping us grow.” It’s more than a sentiment—it’s a reflection of the deep gratitude we feel for those who trust us with their visions, their spaces, and their purpose.
Your partnership inspires us to keep innovating, to keep learning, and to keep pushing our commitment to sustainable, thoughtful design. Every project we complete together is a seed planted toward a stronger, greener future. We are honored to grow alongside you—project by project, relationship by relationship. At Bernardo Wills, our commitment to sustainability goes beyond design—it’s embedded in our culture, our values, and how we show up for our community. Every year, we celebrate Earth Day as a reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve the world around us.
Why Earth Day Matters to Us
As architects, landscape architects, and designers, we understand the direct relationship between the built environment and the natural world. Every project we touch is an opportunity to make responsible choices—about materials, energy use, water conservation, native planting, and overall impact. Earth Day is a chance to reflect on how we can continue to push ourselves and our industry toward more sustainable outcomes.
From designing LEED-certified buildings to integrating green infrastructure into our site plans, sustainability is a core part of what we do. It’s also something we continually strive to evolve. That’s why days like Earth Day are important: they give us a reason to pause, celebrate progress, and recommit to our shared goals.
Rooted in Purpose
The theme of this year’s Earth Day gift—"planting seeds for the future"—echoes our broader mission as a firm. We’re not just creating beautiful, functional spaces; we’re helping to build stronger, more sustainable communities for generations to come. Whether it’s through thoughtful design or everyday choices like using a reusable cup or planting wildflowers, we all have a role to play.
As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue integrating sustainability into everything we do—from project planning to firm culture. Thank you to our incredible team for embracing this effort, and to our clients and community for supporting environmentally responsible design.
