Every project begins with an in-person consultation and site analysis. We take the time to understand how your future landscape will support your lifestyle and experience.
This establishes a framework where future decisions are both functional and true to the aesthetic vision.
A site analysis involves a detailed evaluation of site conditions to fully understand the landscape as it currently exists. From this, we develop a master plan that outlines the property’s spatial organization, material choices, and planting design. Ongoing dialogue and collaboration with our clients ensure the design intent is carried through at every stage of the project.
Our starting point
Profoundly inspired by the Hudson River Valley and Catskill region,
our local awareness allows us to create spaces that are visually stunning, supportive of local ecosystems,
and resilient to local environmental challenges.
Design process
We design by hand as much as possible. Digital tools are important to the process, but sketching allows for spontaneity that best captures the energy of a future landscape.
Before installation begins, we lay out planting areas, stake tree locations and map areas for hardscaping. This helps form a cohesive understanding of garden zone proportions and interconnectedness of the property.
We work closely with local and regional suppliers whose high quality landscaping materials and plants are essential to our work.
Regional sourcing and local talent
We utilize regional stone yards and quarries for hardscaping materials. We partner with local artisans and craftspeople to create bespoke elements for your project.
We are intimately involved throughout the installation process and execute our work
with superior attention to detail. We care deeply about what we do and make sure the work is
thoughtfully composed and stays true to the shared vision.
Skilled excavators, masons, and planting crews execute our vision. We visit nurseries to select plants, trees, and shrubs for their vitality and structure.
