Meet Tyson Scott, Founder of VERDANT

September 15, 2016

As founder and president of VERDANT, S. Tyson Scott oversees every aspect of the design-build process from many vantage points. His work as an urban designer extends to higher education and corporate campuses. He has over 15 years experience working in the landscape industry. As a leader, Tyson continues to raise the bar on VERDANT’s quality of work and positive impact on the environment.

In 1998, Tyson began his career in landscape architecture from the ground up. His passion for creating balance in nature paired well with Texas A&M University where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Horticulture with an emphasis in Landscape Design. Before graduating in 2006, Tyson formed his first LLC, Unique Landscapes. Hands-on, Tyson managed the design-build process for numerous commercial and multi-family residential projects.

In 2014, Tyson rebranded the company as VERDANT— spearheading the collaborative design-build landscape for the nationally award-winning Nutrabolt Headquarters. As a consultant, he has served public agencies with functionality driven creativity. He soon reached another company milestone with several significant higher education design-build projects, including Texas A&M University’s Engineering Activities Building Complex and the conceptual development plan of the Texas A&M University System’s RELLIS Campus.

Tyson values moving forward through shared experiences. His work reflects his extensive field experience and knowledge of how things function. His designs are original, raw, and influenced by function. Above all, Tyson believes in revitalizing the earth by creating harmony in nature and designing innovative, sustainable spaces.
