For the first project we were tasked to create a garden in a narrow footprint which could be enjoyed visually from within the house as well as inhabited in the summer. The integrated bench and planters create topography for lounging and gardening. Plantings are incorporated wherever possible, including on top of the fence.

The second project respects that sun is beautiful, but sometimes it's best enjoyed from under a shady cover. We designed this shading structure and patio for dining and lounging during the heat of summer and rainy summer days. We chose bright durable furniture from lolldesigns and a firepit that doubles as a coffee table for this covered lounge area. Our landscape design juxtaposed water-infiltrating gravel with concrete planks at the walkway.
The third project, “410 at Society Hill” is a new construction luxury condominium building. We designed the common garden in a formal rectilinear language to compliment the building. The garden is built over the parking garage as a green roof with limited soil depth. The varied heights of the planters screen the first floor unit windows. We created nooks for outdoor dining, a lounge area by a linear pool, and a grand lawn.
The 4th project involves a full makeover of a barren roof deck. We designed a shading structure to withstand the wind and beating sun with a retractable roof and side curtains. We chose bold, crisp and heavy furniture — don’t want those chairs blowing off the roof!
