In the competitive world of resort and hospitality design, where innovation and creativity are paramount, Forma Design Partners has emerged as a formidable competitor to world-class design firms with its unique approach and strategic partnerships. Specializing in landscape architecture and master planning, Forma Design Partners has forged collaborations with leading landscape companies, enabling the firm to deliver comprehensive design-build solutions that redefine the standards of excellence in the industry.
Founded in 2015 on the principles of creativity, sustainability, and client-centricity, Forma Design Partners has become synonymous with visionary landscape architecture, where each project reflects a harmonious blend of artistic expression and practicality. With an established team of seasoned design professionals, Forma has garnered acclaim for its ability to transform landscapes into immersive experiences that redefine luxury and elevate the guest experience.
“Ultimately, our goal is to evoke an emotional response from the visitor that lingers in their mind long after they’ve left,” said owner Roland Crighton, who started the firm to pursue his passion for warm-weather resort and hospitality design.
By aligning with experts in construction and horticulture, Forma can seamlessly bridge the gap between design and implementation, ensuring that the original vision is realized with precision and efficiency. “Convincing the developer to forgo the traditional method of design-bid-build can often be challenging,” Crighton remarked, “but in the end, they realize the rewards outweigh the risks”.
The design-build approach offers a host of benefits for the developer, including streamlined communication, faster project delivery, cost efficiency, design flexibility, single-point accountability, enhanced quality control, and the integration of technology and sustainability. Forma’s collaborative approach allows for a seamless flow of ideas, fosters innovation, and ultimately results in the successful delivery of the project on time and on budget.
The success of this delivery model is evident in Forma's portfolio of 5-star luxury resorts. From serene beachfront escapes to world-class destinations in the heart of California’s wine country, each project showcases Forma's commitment to excellence and sustainability.

One example is the recently completed Stanly Ranch in Napa, California, developed by Nichols Partnership in Denver, Colorado. Nestled in the heart of California's famed Napa Valley, Stanly Ranch is a quintessential embodiment of luxury and elegance. Belonging to the Auberge Resorts Collection, this 712-acre property, steeped in history and surrounded by rolling hills and vineyards, offers guests an unparalleled retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Forma was brought on board as a design partner with Sperber Landscape Companies when the project was initially over budget. Working together in a design-build capacity, they reigned in the construction costs and ultimately delivered a 5-star luxury resort that has won multiple awards, including Best Resort Hotel in California.
Despite its relatively smaller size compared to larger design firms, Forma has been able to compete on a global scale by leveraging its agility, creativity, and client-focused approach. Unlike some larger firms that may prioritize scale and volume, Forma places a premium on personalized service, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of each client's vision and objectives.
Forma's success in competing with much larger design firms can be attributed to several key factors. Firstly, the firm's ability to adapt and innovate in response to changing market dynamics and client needs has allowed it to stay ahead of the curve. Whether incorporating cutting-edge technology, sustainable design practices, or innovative materials, Forma consistently delivers solutions that exceed client expectations.
Secondly, Forma's collaborative approach to design has enabled it to forge strong partnerships with clients, consultants, and contractors alike. By fostering open communication and collaboration, Forma ensures that all stakeholders are aligned from the outset, resulting in smoother project delivery and superior outcomes.
Finally, Forma's unwavering commitment to excellence and quality has earned it a reputation as a trusted partner in the industry. Clients consistently praise Forma for its attention to detail, creativity, and ability to deliver projects on time and within budget. This reputation for excellence has helped Forma stand out in a crowded marketplace and compete successfully with much larger firms.
“Looking back, it's humbling to see the transformative projects we've delivered and the lasting impact we've had on the hospitality world. With an unwavering commitment to excellence and a team of talented individuals who share our passion and vision, I have no doubt that Forma will continue to thrive and push the boundaries of what's possible in the industry,” Crighton stated.
Looking ahead, Forma Design Partners is poised to further solidify its position as a leader in resort and hospitality design, continuing to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation through strategic partnerships and collaborative endeavors. With its dedication to delivering exceptional design-build solutions that elevate the guest experience to new heights, the firm is set to leave an indelible mark on the world of hospitality for years to come.
