From the initial call to the end of the project, we practice good listening. Our collaborative, consultative approach is all about sharing ideas, solving problems, and creating alignment between the vision and final product.

The design phase is when we bring ideas to life and explore all the possibilities. Starting with an initial schematic sketch, design documents evolve over the course of a project, becoming more detailed as the design is refined.

From the design documents, we develop a formal construction proposal that provides a road map for the entire project. This document includes key information on specifications, materials, budget, schedule, permits, and more. No detail is overlooked.

Our build process is designed to minimize disruptions and maximize ease and convenience. We manage, coordinate and superintend all aspects of construction, from permitting to site layout, plant and material deliveries, and more. We make sure that everyone is informed and on the same page.

We are committed to high levels of care and expertise as your landscape grows. Upon the completion of a project we continue to provide services. From property maintenance to plant care and fine gardening we ensure that your landscape remains beautiful and healthy long after the initial installation.

Driveways and Front Entrances Handling the Details

Driveways, walkways, and other property front elements require particular attention to detail in terms of engineering and compliance. Often, there are specific grading and elevation concerns that must be addressed to properly handle water flow. There are also local regulations to consider including frontage, setbacks, and other zoning issues. Our experience allows us to identify any potential problem areas and to design solutions that mitigate those trouble spots without sacrificing the look and feel you want. We also take care of permitting requirements and other regulatory matters, so that you are always in compliance.

Patios and Outdoor Living Spaces Creating the Vision

Patios, decks and other types of outdoor rooms offer an immediate escape and refuge. You walk out your back door, and it feels like you’re in a completely different world. Get out of the kitchen and turn on the grill. Dine al fresco. Curl up on a chaise to catch up on some reading. There are countless ways that a beautiful outdoor space can help you relax, recharge, and reconnect with what’s most important. Beautifully integrated walkways, multi-level spaces, and details like edging, walls, and plantings can transform even the most mundane space into a personal paradise suitable for solitary pursuits, family time, or entertaining. Our design process starts with questions about how you hope to use the space so that we can create a solution that meets your needs perfectly.

We consider everything from elevation to flow to the types of materials and how to scale the various elements so that they blend seamlessly. Our wide range of high-quality materials, colors and textures offer building options to suit any style.

Poolscapes Creating the Vision A pool makes for a stunning focal point in a landscape, especially if it’s set into a well-designed environment that enhances both the look of the area and all the ways it can be enjoyed. We use a variety of decorative and functional elements to create attractively integrated pool and spa spaces. We combine surrounding coping, stonework, patios, gardens, water features, and more to deliver beautiful environments that are pleasing to the eye and offer all the smartest and most convenient amenities.

Poolscapes Handling the Details With pools and spas, siting and elevation are critical. Both play a key role in ensuring the best results in terms of both design and use. We are experienced in determining the correct location for a pool; and have the skills needed to properly prepare the site even if the elevation is not where it needs to be to accommodate the design. Our designers are careful to situate pools and spas in ways that maximize space that could be used for other purposes. We manage all the necessary permitting, which can involve a variety of issues, including property that borders on wetlands and other protected areas. We are also current with the latest pool and spa technologies and safety requirements.
