Your Dream Garden Starts with Our Landscape Design

Let us design the garden of your dreams. Our landscape design process begins with a consultation to determine your needs and desires. Whether we’re providing just the design service or building the entire project, we work with you to create an outdoor space that offers year-round color and interest, low maintenance, and sustainable elements.

Create an outdoor entertaining space. Rock or paver patios great for outdoor entertaining, and can reduce water run-off.

Spend less time on yard work. Busy lives mean little time for yard work, so it’s important to put the right plant in the right place. Select perennials over annuals and opt for longer- over shorter-lived plants. Group plants with similar water needs, integrate edible plants, and use deciduous trees to help cool in summer and allow light in winter.

Explore every inch of your yard. Walkways in natural stone and pavers provide access to and through your garden, which also channel rainwater help your garden become more ‘self-watering’.

Relax and unwind in your own private space. Stone and block walls create definition in your yard and provide retaining where needed. Whether a simpler bubbler rock or a more elaborate construction, water features in the landscape provide a soothing touch.

Attract beneficial wildlife. While water features tend to be more energy intensive, they can also serve as rainwater catchments that attract beneficial wildlife to your garden.

Enjoy the fruits of your landscape. A terraced slope provides ideal conditions for fruit-bearing trees and shrubs to mix with ornamental landscapes.

Stir up some drama. LED low-voltage landscape lighting systems require a fraction of the energy of traditional systems, and can highlight dark areas of your yard that might otherwise be overlooked at night.

Save on your water bill. The dry Pacific Northwest summer and early fall often calls for irrigation. Choose systems that use the least water possible in a way that makes your plants drought- resilient rather than water-dependent.
