Warmer days are nearly here… Promise!

We make the most of winter by planning for spring. The key to success for every garden project is early planning and thorough preparation. During the cold, dark winter months, our team is busy consulting with clients, coordinating with suppliers and fabricators, and crafting detailed renderings and construction drawings for spring installations. We power through the winter by designing our gardens, terraces and roof decks with warmer days in mind.It’s freezing and snowing in NYC today, but have no doubt- Snow blanketed yards will transform, welcoming the return of soft, supple grasses and weighted boughs will shake free from the clutches of ice and stretch out, ready to calm and inspire. We can’t wait to relax outside in the warm sunshine- where’s your favorite outdoor space?
