What We Do
Every layer of your outdoor space, handled by one studio.
From first sketch to the last stone laid — design, planting, hardscape, lighting, and the maintenance that keeps it all thriving.
Hardscape & Patios
Stone patios, retaining walls, and pathways built to handle our wet winters without losing their edge.
Outdoor Living & Lighting
Fire features, low-voltage lighting, and covered living spaces that keep the yard usable past sunset.
Lawn Care & Maintenance
Ongoing care plans — mowing, pruning, seasonal cleanup — so the space looks designed all year, not just on install day.
Recent Work
A few grounds we've gotten to shape.
How We Work
Four steps, one point of contact.
No hand-offs between designer, builder, and crew — the same team that sketches your garden is the one that plants it.
Consultation
We walk the site together, talk through how you actually use the outdoors, and scope budget and timeline honestly.
Design
A detailed planting and hardscape plan, materials board, and 3D concept so there are no surprises before we break ground.
Build
Our own crews handle grading, hardscape, planting, and lighting — with weekly updates while work is on site.
Care
Seasonal maintenance plans keep everything establishing well through that first tricky Seattle winter and beyond.
