What we offer

Design excellence is applied throughout all of my design services. I merge art and science to bring your vision to life in a process that builds on collaborations with allied professionals, clients, and stakeholders bridging design disciplines to provide productive design solutions — from ideation to implementation. My efforts are always geared to ensure a tailored experience that reflects your unique lifestyle and property.

  • Our master planning services provide a comprehensive, long-range vision that guides the development, growth, and character of a site. We combine environmental analysis, community needs, and design strategy to create cohesive, functional, and sustainable frameworks for future development. Services include site assessment, land-use planning, circulation and mobility strategies, open-space and amenity programming, and integration of ecological systems. Each master plan delivers clear design guidelines, phased implementation strategies, and illustrative graphics to support decision-making, stakeholder engagement, and successful project execution.

    • Existing conditions analysis and site assessment reports

    • Land-use diagrams and program allocation plans

    • Circulation plans (pedestrian, bicycle, vehicular, transit)

    • Open space frameworks and amenity programming diagrams

    • Conceptual master plan alternatives and refinement iterations

    • Environmental and ecological systems mapping

    • Stormwater and sustainability strategy diagrams

    • Urban design guidelines and landscape character guidelines

    • Phasing plans and implementation strategies

    • 3D massing studies, illustrative site plans, and visualizations

Three Phases

Starting with the big idea, the design process is broken down into 3 simple phases that build on one another — going from the general to the very specific.  This ensures that every detail of your new landscape is carefully considered and crafted to YOU.  Following the outlined process: reduces change orders during construction, facilitates more accurate bids, enhances the overall product, reduces warranty work and helps eliminate costly long-term repairs.

1) Design/Planning

The design/planning stage builds on the vision we developed during our in-person consultation. This is the time for thinking "outside the box." We’ll explore concepts and review references working towards the broader goals and objectives set in our discussions. The process is heavily influenced by the site analysis and the budget to ensure the design is feasible. As the project is starting to take shape, I develop the design direction you've chosen and guide you through a series of key decisions ultimately leading to final design approval. We’ll refine the overall look of the design and dive into the details—finalizing the layout, focusing on finish levels, and selecting materials. Once these decisions are made, I coordinate with other design consultants to ensure everything works together seamlessly.

2) Construction Documentation

Construction documentation is the final design step in the project delivery process. During this stage, I focus on finalizing a comprehensive set of drawings and specifications for all the landscape components — aka “Blueprints.” These documents serve as the foundation for the project's building permit application and approval. The construction documents outline in detail the requirements for building your landscape elements, including the quality of materials and building systems needed. They also provide the necessary information for estimating costs and guide the construction process.

3) Construction Administration

Ok, it’s time for the the main design plans come to life! A lot of factors need to be considered to ensure that the project goals are carried through to successful implementation. We’ll help select qualified contractors, set up communication procedures, and work with the expanded team to turn the vision into reality. It's important to stay focused on the design intent as we navigate the construction phase. During this time, I assist clients with:

  • The bidding process

  • Reviewing contractor material submittals

  • Responding to addenda, ASI (Architectural Supplemental Instructions), and RFIs (Requests for Information)

  • Conducting site observation visits

  • Providing supplemental information

  • Payment application reviews

  • And confirm construction completion, both before and during the turnover of the project from the contractor to you, the client
