DESIGN - The outdoor space around a home or business should be welcoming, comfortable, and healthy. Designing gardens to complement personal styles, architecture, and existing site conditions is a process that we try not to rush. It takes time to learn and understand an outdoor space and how the needs of the owner will shape it. It is a process. We take a holistic approach to design, working to understand our clients’ needs and visions to create something functional and pleasing to the senses.

STONEWORK - We work with natural stone from local quarries. Not only does this stone ‘fit’ into sites seamlessly, but is also environmentally healthier than other materials sourced from farther away by requiring less energy and fuel. We primarily build using dry laid techniques - without concrete or mortar. This form of craft has been passed down and honed for thousands of years. Using high quality material and tried and true building methods allows for long lasting stonework - the backbone of any landscape.

GARDENS - As plant enthusiasts, it is a challenge to hold off on talking about plants right away. While we are happy to brainstorm some plant options during the consultation, plants are the final phase of the design process. Site analysis and landscape goals determine what species will be most successful long term.
