Design

For those inspired by Japanese garden aesthetics and who wish to capture the rhythms of nature within their home or work space, we will help you achieve that goal.

Our designs are guided by the time-tested principles of the Japanese tradition of focusing on the integration of the home and garden relationship. The first step in our process is design concept and planning.

Build

Our guiding principles are craftsmanship and innovation anchored by authenticity and tradition. We combine elegant design solutions with the highest quality materials to achieve a masterful work of living art.

Our skilled team of craftsmen will see your project through from concept to completion, collaborating and communicating with you throughout the construction process.

Care

As the construction of the project wraps up, the life of the garden begins, bringing many years of joy and enrichment. Each landscape garden is different, requiring a custom care plan to develop your landscape to the fullest. This includes ornamental pruning of trees and shrubs, as well as other yearly maintenance tasks.

We offer a post-build care program to accommodate these needs. If the project is out of our area, we will connect you with a local specialist to care for your specific landscape.

Portfolio

Although our projects have taken us to a wide variety of climates with differing hardscaping materials and plant palettes, our core processes and goals of creating one-of-a-kind landscapes has remained the same.

Elements of a
Japanese Garden

There are endless combinations and placement of Japanese garden features, but the aim is always to achieve a cohesive and refined result.

The seemingly simple solutions and natural flow of the landscapes we create are often the result of the well-thought-out placement of garden elements.
