MISSION
“Our mission is to listen, observe and explore so that we find a balance between the characteristics of the land and our clients’ objectives.” – Angelica Martin
All of our designs draws on disciplines from horticulture to fine art, architecture, and ecology. Using best sustainability practices, projects incorporate green building materials as well as reclaimed and drought tolerant landscape elements that are adapted to the San Francisco Bay Area.
DESIGN BUILD
Benefits of a Design Build Landscape Practice:
Most of our work is design/build because it maintains the integrity of our designs while allowing us to control the quality of the labor. This is beneficial to our clients because it creates a single point of responsibility, creates transparent communications, speeds up the delivery time and optimizes costs. This arrangement provides a seamless transition between concept on paper and built reality. Client investment is sheltered and nothing is lost in translation.
