Bruce Maw

Bruce L Maw became enthused about a career as a landscape architect after completing a botany class as a prerequisite for entrance into pharmaceutical school and subsequent to concluding numerous courses in art and graphic design. He is a licensed landscape architect, a former member of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), and a 1981 Utah State University graduate in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning. He has worked in all aspects of the profession of landscape architecture, including residential and urban/recreational park design, large-scale planning, and public facilitation, and provided design services in campus and institutional planning to Brigham Young University for 25 years as the campus landscape architect in Physical Facilities. Bruce also ran a residential landscape design business in the evenings and weekends for all those years in Utah County, thus, improving the beautification of the area “one residence at a time.

Bruce has served as an officer in various capacities within the Utah chapter of ASLA, editor of the chapter newsletter, on the Provo City Parks and Urban Forestry Board, and served on the Utah State University LAEP Advisory Board. He also volunteered for six years on the Hidden Garden Tour committee and assisted in the selection and hosting of gardens. In September 2005, BYU won top honors in the University Campus category from America in Bloom, a nonprofit organization dedicated to "Planting Pride in Our Communities." Landscape architecture has allowed Bruce to combine his interest in plants and design, while providing a rewarding service to a diversity of users within the community.
