Services
We meet with our clients to get to know them and develop a thorough understanding of how they envision the overall look and function of their Martha's Vineyard landscape.
We carefully assess the unique physical properties of each site to determine what material from the site can be saved and used in the new landscape, and what materials and plants are best suited to the style of the home, along with the property's terrain, microclimates, and other factors.After the initial client meeting, we design a preliminary landscape plan and review it with our client.

New landscapes are constantly evolving. As plants grow and develop, they need periodic tending to retain the integrity of the original design. Our maintenance crew is skilled at maintaining landscapes throughout the seasons, including spring clean-ups, plant health assessments, summer tending, autumn clean-ups, and winter protection.
At this Martha's Vineyard property, the clients wanted a pool and an outdoor living area. We transformed the small lawn area below the deck into an area that would accommodate a 20-foot by 45-foot swimming pool, a pool house, and an outdoor living area. We built a stone retaining wall with a seating bench in it.
In our plans to integrate the house naturally into the landscape, rather than have it stand out as a dominant feature, we nestled it into the land, a little lower than the high point of the property. This balanced the house within the natural landforms and took advantage of its great pond surroundings.
This property had a small summer camp on it that sat just high enough to have a small water view of the Atlantic Ocean, along the south shore of Martha's Vineyard. When a major renovation of the house took place, it provided an opportunity to do a fundamental redesign of the landforms as well as the gardens.
