We endeavor to design gardens and out-door living spaces that work with nature – not against her. We don’t do sprawling lawns that require excessive irrigation fertilizing, and mowing. We think forward to avoid maintenance nightmares. We minimize maintenance time and costs by using native or non-invasive plant material sited in the right locations. You won’t see a messy tree next to a patio or a blue spruce five feet from your house in our designs, nor will we install junipers or cotoneasters where they will trap all of your leaves in the fall.

Through the use of recycled materials like crushed concrete, recovered road bricks, recycled curb stone, and old foundation stone, we can help minimize the use of virgin or manufactured materials, and the volume of waste material going to landfills. We listen to our clients, and we get creative with awkward yards. We aim to deliver beautiful and useable spaces suited to their owners’ needs and to create them responsibly.
