PROJECT LIFE CYCLE
Making luxury landscapes accessible.
Our team produce landscape designs grounded in sophistication that mirror the lifestyle you desire. We are passionate about cultivating intuitive living spaces that enhance a property’s true expression and purpose.
1. ENGAGE
Curiosity | Collaboration | Chemistry.
Our initial visit is meant to give us a sense of your priorities, desired land use, and personal aesthetic. We cover the property’s history, exposure, drainage, borrowed landscapes, and wildlife.
We’ll explore the passive influences in your life; travel, function, and architectural preferences that inspire synergy between yourself and your landscape. This is where the spark begins.
2. Design
As a process-driven collective, we move your vision through Preliminary sketches and Mood boards, 3D renderings & Masterplans and end with planting plans and working drawings.
We weave together the structural elements, planting composition, natural & hardscape materials to meet the desired vision. The goal is to capture and conceptualize your ideas into an established set of design mock-ups, ready for pricing and production.
3. Curate
Here we determine the scope of work required to execute the design. We source our best construction partners, craftsmen and materials for your project within your budget. Together, we build the budget, logistical timelines, plan for permits, and get clear on deliverables and variables.
Extensive research is done to consider final colours, configurations and materials. We investigate topographic details, introduce ourselves to your neighbours, and assess available utilities. The complete lifecycle of the project is charted to avoid site congestion, clear access, ensure safety and plan for potential pivots.
4. CONSTRUCT
With 20 years under our belts designing and facilitating landscapes, we’ve come to recognize that the best build executions are those lead by Danée at the helm. Supported in trust, by our construction partners, this is what makes working with us a bespoke experience.
Our preference to oversee our Builds allows us to advocate on your behalf for quality, ingenuity, efficiency and accountability. Our methods are agile; pivoting in the face of each challenge to find opportunities.
5. Cultivate
This final phase is where all the pieces come together. In collaboration with local talent, we cultivate your vision. Our team oversees all finishing touches from the install of plant material to final fixtures such as furniture, pavilions and lighting elements.
We apply a thoughtful approach to this stage, with attention on every detail, finessing each component, plant position and contour is as it should be. Returning for a 6 month check in, and if history repeats, by invitation, year after year.
