We draw a clear distinction between style and decoration. A garden that stands on equal footing with the surrounding land and the surrounding built environment does not need much decoration. We always try to put ourselves in our client's place and imagine that we would be living with the garden. We develop a design path to a seemingly simple and endlessly elegant design stripped of decoration yet filled with imagination, lightness and plantings that is at once restorative. We carefully consider the use of the garden, the timing of the seasons, when the garden will be used. It is our pleasure to tone down the staccato of civilization. It is our priviledge to temporarily stop the rush of time and illuminate the transformative qualities which the garden holds.
