He has since completed numerous high-profile projects throughout Florida and the Gulf South region, earning a reputation for his ability to create functional outdoor spaces that seamlessly integrate with the surrounding environment.

Known for his hands-on approach to design, he incorporates native plants and materials into his design palette to utilize locally available resources and foster a sense of place. Gage exhibits a strong attention to detail, a respect for nature and a dedication to resilient solutions within his projects. With a passion for blending design and construction, Gage continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the office and the field.
