Landscape designs and installation
Below are a few examples of my design / install work. Patios, walls and watergardens are some of my favorite design elements.

   

This walkway connected the drive with the front door with the garage
A circle pattern is used to tie all three portions of walkway together
This welcoming walkway and landscape replaced the old grass patch.
This new house needed to "fit in" with its hilly site.
Pillars and fixtures bring elements of the house into the landscape.
Waterfalls make this landscape sound as nice as it looks.
Thoughtful plantings soften all the stone, brick, and concrete.
Cobblestone curbs and tumbled pavers compliment this all brick home.
This custom fence blooms all year long and is great for cuttings.
These unique stepping stones allow you to "walk" on the water feature
Multi-level patios, waterfalls, swimming pool and a lush plantings.
Unique, thoughtful use of materials can be funtional and beautiful.
This design included a patio, retaining wall, fence, and water garden
Built-in benchs create a place to sit and enjoy the water garden
Front foundation plantings should work with the architecture
During this project as we removed the old and constructed new
View from the new upper patio level down steps. This replaced a deck.
"Paver quilting" broke-up the large paved areas and defined use areas.
Does this look like a good place for a party?
Gazebo and sitting areas make cozy places to sit and talk.
Clean, neat lines direct foot traffic to pool areas.
This upper patio was well lit for night time entertaining.
The view from the driveway is private, but inviting.
This design's goal was to make new landscaping fit this older home
Well designed walls provide seating and privacy
Walls and a small patio completed late Fall 2003.
Old steps. Concrete. uneven. Uninspired.
New steps and walk. Natural. Relaxed. Cool. completed 5/22/05
Steps close-up of stones. Ready for plantings!
A little stonework can be dramatic and functional.
Pillars and lights make an elegant entrance to any home.
A natural stone front step was built to match the walls.
This is how the step and walk looks from the porch
Here is how the site looked during construction.
The finished product ended at a gravel driveway.
This installation featured curved walls, pillars and bull-nose steps.
