About Me
Approach and Design Philosophy
My Approach
To provide professional, straight forward, constructable design solutions for the Residential, Commercial, Municipal and Industrial market.
I believe strongly in the design process. Doing a design for your project, is a valuable step to achieving your goals using your space efficiently and taking advantage of your site's attributes.
Understanding the opportunities & constraints of your property, together with how your goals & objectives could be achieved is the role of the designer. I always tell my clients, that it is much more economical to change something on a design than it is during construction.
My goal is to build long term relationships with customers and provide them with economical, landscape solutions for their properties within their budget.
Design Philosophy
My design philosophy revolves around transparency, understanding my clients goals & objectives for their properties (scope of work), minimizing site disturbance, and moving through a step by step process that includes (but is not limited to) the following:
- Written project charter/proposal;
- Identification of key collaborators;
- Identify agencies having jurisdiction;
- Due diligence;
- Coordination of topographic survey;
- Coordination of geotechnical investigation (if required);
