CARLOS SOMOZA | Principal
A native Floridian, Carlos Somoza grew up along the tree-lined streets of Coral Gables, Florida, and attended the University of Florida’s College of Architecture, School of Landscape Architecture. 

Carlos returned to South Florida after completing a career-defining apprenticeship at the award winning landscape architecture firm
Oehme, van Sweden and Associates.  During his apprenticeship, Carlos had the opportunity to collaborate on several distinctive projects including the master planning, design and construction of a 25-acre equestrian estate, the renovation for the grounds of a historic Country Place Era residence in Southampton, and the design and construction documentation for Chicago Botanic Garden’s Trellis Bridge, an arching, curving pedestrian deck that spans 300 feet over one of the garden’s lake systems.

With over 25 years of experience practicing landscape architecture and urban design in the Mid Atlantic and Southeastern United States, Carlos Somoza’s experience includes the design and implementation of estate gardens in Washington, DC, Southampton, New York and Westchester County, New York.   Currently, Carlos is a consultant landscape architect for boutique resorts in southwest Florida and the island of Puerto Rico.  Closer to home, Carlos has led efforts to design and build private estates in Wellington, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove, Florida

Carlos is an avid photographer and frequently visits private estates and specialty plant nurseries for design inspiration and photography opportunities. His photos have been published in national media publications including American Airlines magazine, Ocean Drive and the Miami Herald.

Carlos recently presented a five-week lecture course, Design Principles for South Florida Gardens, at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Coral Gables, Florida.
