Design Introduction...

(This website is a portfolio album of previous design work, text, academics/ theory, shown expanded below).

Thank you for visiting this landscape design gallery, for an informal touring review. Select expertise are shown as was previously provided as an independent landscape designer-- specializing in landscape conceptual design, specified planting plans, and site garden design drawings. Complementary items are interwoven.

Design services accommodated various architectural and other professionals, or private individuals-- to uniquely accord particular project needs and opportunities for many project-use types. A flexible variety of landscape design services and easily incrementally electable "trace, print or cad' drawing methods comfortably address best interests with preferred strategies:

1)  Design options started or concluded with verbal consultation, regarding primary concerns, possible goals/objectives, initial ideas, methods and strategies; (
This intends to be both 'encompassing' and 'convergent' in a most interestingly relevant, productive, yet conveniently informal way. Meetings can be general or more elaborating, as desired).  
2)  collaboration may of then extend by choice to thoughtful alternative concept diagrams, and
3)  preliminary/ general design, or a masterplan;
4)  or more detailed schematic construction drawings. On-site assistance, or adjustment changes and alternates were possible subsequent stages.
The chosen degree of consultation and best type document format-level can efficiently facilitate your construction process, from sourcing to phasing. A landscape plan may be physically implemented as deemed time/cost feasible-- be it by using only certain parts, or in planning eventual stages, or fast-tracked in full by one's own qualified parties.

Projects reflect focused attention throughout the extent of their design process with... 
(a) Information: by ongoing client input, observational inventory, general analysis or selective summary of architecture/ site, of special features and the fuller context;  (Information and work is considered approximate or schematic).
(b) Interpretation: for an "essence-driven", relationally inspiring synthesis.
(c) Design proposal ideas: entail the derivational & intuited embracing of distinctive relevant concepts and articulations... aiming toward a creative, practical integration of a desired activity program and most appealing significant aesthetic.


DESIGN STATEMENT: 

"Responsive innovation in landscape composition, expression, symbolism, and function-- from concepts to detail, across different scales"-- is considered the guiding design philosophy toward a simply good proposal. To that, a client's favored conceptions, preferred design style, the existing site & structures (interior/ exterior), multiple levels of relating concern, and what one believes is best all around... are respectfully hallmarked in concert for distinctly positive results. The discovery and virtuous integration of meritorious ideas-- contextually interacting to enhance or transform a site in a most appropriate, meaningful, attractive, valued way-- is the connective designing goal. A landscape may bring lasting pleasure... as it at once persists, evolves, and naturally changes over time, through multi-layered cyclical patterns of ever-shifting hours, days, seasons, and years.

*Individuals were asked to please free to inquire for further examples, a  preliminary discussion, or to send any base information, drafts or CAD drawings for a helpful review. An interesting overview of your site or other projects were  to be happily provided.

Thank you for touring nown just for general design interests or academic exploring!  GB
