ASLA Council of Fellows
We're proud to announce that Scott Howard, founding Principal of HFSD, Inc. has been elected as a 2021 ASLA Fellow.
Election to the American Society of Landscape Architects Council of Fellows is among the highest honors the ASLA bestows on members and is based on their works, leadership/management, knowledge, and service. Association members are elevated into the Council of Fellows for their exceptional contributions to the landscape architecture profession and society at large.
If you know anything about Scott, you know how dedicated he is to making central Oklahoma a more beautiful place to live! 36 years of service to the profession with many outstanding accomplishments to show.
Congratulations Scott!!
Happy Retirement!
It is with mixed emotions (happiness, gratitude, sadness, joy, & envy) that I announce the retirement of my dear friend and integral partner/colleague at Howard-Fairbairn Site Design, Scott Fairbairn.
​
Scott’s dedication and work as a partner at HFSD, Inc. over the last 27 years is hard to sum up. He has led and worked on an incredible amount of projects over the years. His experience and work ethic are second to none, and will be sorely missed. He has not only given his time to HFSD, but also to the Oklahoma ASLA Chapter serving as Chapter President this past year. Scott’s commitment, talent and passion put into each project has been valued and appreciated. He has been a wonderful partner and will always be remembered here at HFSD. I am very sad to see him go, but am excited for all his adventures to come with his wife Sheri, their three grown children and eight beautiful grandchildren.
​
Scott, I (and everyone at HFSD) can’t thank you enough, and wish you all the best in retirement!!! Godspeed my friend! We will miss you!
