Process

  • Garden landscape with timber retaining walls, planter boxes, pollinator flowers, seating area with chairs and tables, and various flowering plants including lavender, yellow, white, orange, and purple blooms.

    Design

    The first step is to trade images and ideas with you to discover a vision that reflects your personal taste - honing in on a color palate, materials and plant choices. We will determine the best way to realize your intentions for your space.

  • Collage of desert plants, rocks, cacti, succulents, flowering plants, and garden elements.

  • Colorful hand-drawn garden layout with pathways, rocks, plants, a small pond, and labeled areas including 'Chaar' and 'Chair,' with the notes 'Adelaide' and 'Spring Gate' written on the top right corner.

    Draw

    I use a combination of hand drawings, renderings and construction documents to bring our ideas into concrete form.

  • Hand-drawn school layout or floor plan with various labeled areas and annotations in different colors, including circles, lines, and notes.

  • A detailed architectural blueprint of a building layout with measurements, labeled as '24" Wide Step Dims,' showing rooms and dimensions in feet and inches.

  • A detailed garden landscape layout plan with plant labels and photographs of various plants like Bottlebrush, Stipa pulchra, Chocolate Cosmos, Desert Yarrow, Penstemon Margarita Bop, Manzanita, Grevillea, Encilia, Acacia Iteaphylla, Salvia Clevelandii, Toyon, and Melianthus major.

  • A backyard in the process of landscaping with large concrete paving stones being arranged, potted plants, decorative rocks, and two workers standing nearby on a dirt area as part of a garden or patio renovation.

    Build

    We work with crews of varying sizes depending on the scale of the project. These crews include hardscapers, carpenters, irrigation specialists and lighting technicians.

  • View from above of a backyard garden with a tree, stone walkway, small plants, and a wooden fence.

  • A backyard construction site with large flagstone pieces, bricks being laid for a pathway, a bucket of mortar, hand tools, and a white wall. In the background, there is a white utility truck parked on the street.

  • Potted plants and cacti lined up against a grey garage door on a paved patio with some plant grow bags wrapped in paper.
