Hello
My name is Michael Bostic. I live in Ann Arbor, Michigan and have worked at SmithgroupJJR as a site designer and campus planner since graduating from Michigan State University with a Bachelors of Landscape Architecture in 2011.
I'm a tremendously hard worker. Upon graduation my classmates at MSU gave me the Most Likely to be in Studio Right Now award. I draft with integrity and take pride in keeping clean and organized files. I have a passion for graphics and have a desire to become a stronger, more creative designer, and am just now beginning to search for a firm in which I can spend the next formative years of my career.
I am caught by the refined sense of design that is embodied within Coen + Partners' work. The Jackson Meadow residential community first piqued my interest in the firm. Good design solutions often seem obvious once they've been solved, and the simplistic, sustainable, rustic development is no exception. I am also fascinated by the parametric designed screen walls at Westminster. The time and design contrast between them and the original structure is vast, yet the walls stand with elegance, as if they've been there all along.
I've been part of a large corporation for several years. A small firm, big family, forward thinking, honest design studio is precisely the experience that I am looking for. I believe that we are, in large part, products of our environment and I am quite interested in gaining a better understanding of the Coen + Partners culture.
If you would like to discuss my fit, and a potential opportunity for me, then you can reach me at bosticm2@gmail.com. Also, please feel free to have a look at my Work Samples, CV, and References.
