Concept design
A clear big-picture plan showing spaces, movement, materials, and the character of the planting.
A clear path from idea to earth
Slow down.
Look closely.
The best landscapes come from paying attention before drawing a line. We make room for that—and keep every next step clear.

Questions we hear
Before we begin.
What does a design typically cost?
Concept packages begin around $2,800. Larger properties and construction-heavy projects are scoped individually after the site visit.
Can you work in phases?
Yes. We often build a complete plan and divide installation into sensible phases so each step stands on its own.
Do you maintain gardens you design?
Our stewardship program is available to design clients and focuses on horticultural care, seasonal editing, and plant health—not mow-and-blow maintenance.
How long does the process take?
Most residential designs take six to ten weeks. Installation timing depends on scale, materials, and planting season.
