Fred Langford started his career as an architect designing concrete formwork for the famous architect Louis Kahn. From there he designed several hotels in the Wildwoods as well as consulted for his childhood friend Will Morey whom founded Morey’s Piers.

He was always fascinated with beautiful and sustainable architecture and sculpture and achieved his career crescendo by being inducted into International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Hall of Fame for his invention of water slides.

Golf was a hobby but in reality the design of Laguna played off of his life long experience in sculpting and building formwork to cast beautiful structures.
