Chloé Skye Nagraj

Project Designer

Chloé Skye Nagraj holds a Master of Landscape Architecture from the University of Virginia, where she was awarded an ASLA Certificate of Merit, three Virginia ASLA Student Awards, and the Faculty for Landscape Architecture Award for Research Excellence. She also holds a B.A. in Art History and Studio Art from the University of Virginia.

After an internship at NBW in 2019, Chloe joined NBW in 2020 and has worked on a range of public and institutional projects across all phases. She has a particular passion for connecting people to place through planting design, which is exhibited in her planting design work for Lakeshore Park in Knoxville, TN, the Garden Club of Virginia, Citygarden in St. Louis, MO, Walter Reed Healing Garden in Bethesda, MD, and the John Welsh Memorial Fountain at West Fairmount Park in Philadelphia, PA. 

Chloé’s research work has been supported by the Dumbarton Oaks Garden and Landscape Studies Program, the Landscape Architecture Foundation CSI program, and a UVA Student Research Grant. Her graduate thesis considered the decommissioning process of military and industrial sites. In it she proposes an expanded methodological design approach within the decommission process that is motivated by a relational understanding of site history.
