Portfolio

A successful garden has a distinct atmosphere. It can provide drama, excitement, relaxation, contemplation, and playfulness. It should be inspiring, and create a mood through light and reflection, color, texture, form and scale. A good design will deliberately define space, play with a relationship between nature and art, and create a strong connection to the natural world.

Each site and client is unique and provides an opportunity to create a new and imaginative garden. Landscape design is a very organic art form; it will continually change day to day as shadow and light play across its face; season to season as silhouette transforms to striking flowers and intoxicating scents, then to fruits and berries and crisp autumn foliage; and year to year as plants mature and fill in. By providing delights for all five of the senses, your garden can be a place of beauty and wonder.
