In her landscape design practice, Asher endeavors to attempt every design brief with a new and organic angle in order to explore the immense range of possibilities when manipulating a landscape. Her style can be described as smooth, flowing and sensitive to the land. Asher often designs her own landscape installations such as sculptures as a part of her design scheme.

Fascinated by the intricacies of nature and inspired by environmental artists and landscape photographers such as Andy Goldsworthy, Asher produced a series of eastern inspired paintings as a part of her Design Honors work that allowed her to explore an alternative perspective for interpreting the landscape.

Asher hopes to gain landscape experience in a variety of settings in the first few years of her career. She aspires to be a part of any landscape architecture work that will make a difference on a global scale.
