Yu Chen
Designer II

Yu grew up in China and attended school in Rhode Island to pursue landscape architecture. Her interest in the industry comes from its connection and combination of different disciplines. Yu sees landscape architecture as an art of balance and enjoys how designers pursue the harmony between nature and urban environments, design and practice, and ideas and policies. She delights in the opportunity to see a project through every phase – from original design brainstorming to final construction.

When she’s not working, Yu enjoys spending time practicing drums, baking, watching movies, and learning magic tricks. An avid traveler, one of her most memorable trips was to Naoshima, Japan, where she was surrounded by beautiful island views and immersed in art, including the works of Tadao Ando.
