ABOUT US
STUDIO PAD is a an award-winning landscape architecture firm based in Orange County, California.
Studio PAD is a Landscape Architectural design firm founded by Peter A Duarte, in 2012, with a simple initiative – be creative and design smart, environmentally sustainable spaces benefiting humanity and environment, with meaningful, long-lasting identities.
Every design project, small and large, local and abroad, simple and complex goes through the same design process to establish a strong STORY instilling distinctive quality with smart designed solutions. The meaning of ‘smart’ design is that every project is evaluated for its intended use and function while being designed within project budgets, parameters and constraints. Thus, in turn, creating built environments, that function as intended, and provide people with an enhanced environment for time to come. In current times, SMART designs also encompasses being ‘Green’ and ‘Water-wise’ with every project, taking into consideration the natural environment and local resources to reduce, conserve and recycle as much as feasibly possible.

Mr. Duarte ensures that the firm’s direction stays focused on a team-oriented, collaborative, and high quality service approach to design, management and implementation through all phases of each project.
