GARDEN COACHING

A comprehensive custom design for your outdoor space with oversight from concept to installation.  We take your vision and combine our expertise in spatial and sustainable design to create a plan that is beautiful, functional, and ecologically balanced.

Landscape design elements include:

  • Site Analysis:  Environmental conditions (sun, soil, water requirements,  and wind), property views, and drainage.

  • Spatial Design:  Traffic flow, patios, lawns, flower and vegetable gardens, garden rooms, water features, and pools.   Consider how these elements relate to the house and each other to create a harmonious composition.

  • Sustainability:  Water management, native plants, gravel and wildlife gardens.  Bring your landscape into equilibrium with nature for a more vibrant and low maintenance outdoor space.

  • Material Selection:  Hardscaping and plant materials, garden features, lighting structures, and outbuildings.  We work with the best suppliers and artisans to select the perfect materials to complement your outdoor space.
