ORO Editions will publish 'Capturing Essence' in 2026, a monograph celebrating the 30th anniversary of Virginia Burt Designs, an award-winning landscape architecture firm known for its diverse portfolio across the United States and Canada. The book features seventeen projects that embody the firm's holistic design philosophy, which emphasizes respect for people and place while addressing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual experiences of space. Notable projects include an environmental restoration site at Acadia Point, Nova Scotia, a former whaling station transformed into a place of renewal, and the Schneider Healing Garden, a therapeutic garden supporting the Seidman Cancer Center in Cleveland. The publication presents these spaces through words, images, and tactile design, reflecting the firm's meticulous attention to detail and materials. The announcement was made on August 14, 2026, via ArchDaily, and the book is available in Spanish and English.
