Inspiration Everywhere:
Sometimes a path inspires and it’s hard to explain exactly why.
The mix of colors, the stone work, the loose structure the seasonal color provides?
That is where experienced landscape architects come into play. We understand and we get to that core “feeling” of a simple walk and turn that into your realized dream.

So you have a steep hill, what to do?
Plantings help prevent erosion
Plantings add color
Plantings add interest
Plantings become a show piece
Sure, we added 100 tons, or more, of stone, but to enhance the look you need plantings. Lots and lots of beautiful and wonderful plantings of shrubs and perennials to make the look, literally, come alive.
It is amazing the impact a small renovation can make to your home!
