The ASLA Design Medal is awarded to an individual landscape architect who has produced a body of exceptional design work at a sustained level for a period of at least ten years.

Richard L. Haag, FASLA, of Seattle, Washington, will be awarded the ASLA Design Medal in honor of his exceptional accomplishments in design. Since 1958, Haag has participated in over 500 built projects, the majority of which are located in the Pacific Northwest. His two best known projects are Gas Works Park in Seattle and Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island, Washington. Haag was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to study in Japan for two years and was named a Fellow at the American Academy in Rome. The most fundamental aspect of his work has consistently been a concern for landform and sculpting of the land. His choice of plants and their juxtaposition is often rich, bold, and strong, yet accomplished with the use of only a few species and groups at a time. In 2003, he received the ASLA Medal for his lifetime achievements and contributions. He continues to teach and lecture internationally while practicing as principal of Richard Haag & Associates.
