Landris is a Virginia-based practice working across interiors, renovation, hospitality, and place-based development.

We believe buildings carry cultural memory. The way they are restored, inhabited, and maintained shapes not only individual experience, but the continuity of communities, landscapes, and regional identity over time.

Our work focuses on the long-term stewardship of existing places through thoughtful design, operational durability, and preservation-minded development. We are particularly interested in the relationship between hospitality, heritage, and economic resilience: how buildings and land can remain useful, financially sustainable, and deeply connected to the places they belong to.

Rather than treating preservation as nostalgia or luxury as spectacle, we approach restoration as an ongoing act of care. We value materials that age well, spaces that feel lived in, and environments shaped by local culture, climate, and history rather than trend.

Landris draws from research in hospitality sites as vehicles for heritage preservation and ecological conservation, with a particular interest in the relationship between hospitality, regional identity, and the enduring use of place.

Current projects explore heritage redesign of residential properties.
