“The garden-maker must know intimately the forms and texture as well as the colour of all the plants he uses; for plants are to the gardener what his palette is to a painter.”
— Beatrix Farrand
When undertaking any large or complex project – it is best to have a plan of action. A well formed plan is necessary for the long-term success of a garden. Our designs create spaces that will improve and develop over time.
THE DESIGN PROCESS
The object of each design is to create a landscape that is beautiful and functional. When considering the options for a site, there are many variables to consider. We strive to create designs that improve with the years. We understand and anticipate the pitfalls of executing a landscape plan. From a functional perspective, we consider the needs of the plants, the drainage conditions on the site, the soil type, and the climate. From an aesthetic perspective, we consider the color, texture and size of our plant material. As well as the architecture of the house, existing aspects of the landscape, and the proportions of the spaces created. With our expertise, we can provide you with a design that meets all your needs, and is easy to enjoy.
