Co-founder of Design Workshop

In 1969 Joe Porter and Don Ensign founded Design Workshop. The name is derived from the collaborative process with which they taught in the landscape architecture department at North Carolina State University.[3]

The firm practices landscape architecture, land planning, urban design and tourism planning.[3] They combine principles of smart growth, sustainable design and environmentally sound planning to reconcile economic needs with the preservation of scenic, cultural and community values.[3] Their earliest projects engaged them in planning new communities in Columbia, Maryland, and Raleigh, North Carolina, as well as resort work on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.[3] Since its inception, Design Workshop has earned more than seventy design awards from such organizations as the American Society of Landscape Architects, the American Planning Association and the Urban Land Institute.[3] Presently, the firm comprises 140 designers, planners and support staff in six North American offices in Aspen, Denver, Salt Lake City, Lake Tahoe, Austin and Asheville, North Carolina.[3]
