It’s a win for nature.” – Biohabitats Founder, Keith Bowers
On October 30, 2023, Biohabitats was presented with the American Society of Landscape Architects’ 2023 Landscape Architecture Firm Award, the highest honor the organization bestows on a firm. Keith Bowers, founder and president of Biohabitats, accepted the award along with team members Jennifer Dowdell, Erin English, Chris Streb, and Jim Cooper.
