Noel Studios is a design practice rooted in the living relationship between earth and sky. We create landscapes that align with celestial rhythms, Native plant knowledge, and the deep memory of place. Each design is a cosmogram - transforming gardens into living calendars - places of regeneration, ritual, and return. Born from the belief that time itself can be held, healed, and reoriented through the land.

Laura Noel is a designer and educator currently teaching landscape design and horticulture at Maharishi International University. Her research explores Vedic and Biodynamic gardening practices, with an emphasis on planetary rhythms, sacred geometry, and the role of plants in healing land and lineage.

Raised in Akron, Ohio — a post-industrial city in the Rust Belt — Laura’s work is rooted in a lifelong inquiry into how landscapes can restore not just ecosystems, but communities and cultural memory. With over a decade of experience as a gardener, farmer, and designer, her practice blends ecological insight with a deep love for beauty, functionality, and spiritual ecology.

She holds a Bachelor’s in Urban Planning and a Master’s in Landscape Architecture from the University of Cincinnati, along with a Planting Design Diploma from the London College of Garden Design. Her training in herbalism and botany at the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine continues to shape her intuitive, soil-centered approach to planting design.
