architects…
Architects and landscape architects love having Rusty on their professional teams to design schools, parks, and play areas. Let’s work together!
“I can’t imagine having done this with anyone else!
From beginning to end Rusty Keeler’s skills as facilitator, artist and designer, innovator, and project manager lead us from our first hazy ideas to a finished project that is the joy of kids and families and the pride of our agency.”
“I am IN LOVE with this area now! What a difference a few small changes make!!!
This playground has really come to life! I never would have thought of all this stuff, so I again thank you very much for your ideas!!!!”
“Rusty has a gift for imbuing joy and wonder into his designs, and breaking the mold with his sense of the fantastic.
We are very proud of the projects we have been able to work on together thus far.”
