As San Francisco Bay Area natives, we love making gardens inspired by the beauty, diversity, and ecology of California. 

We think plants bring people joy and, used well, give every homeowner power to help heal the environment.

Through over 30 years of professional design practice we have developed close relationships with talented local craftspeople who bring attention and quality to every detail.

Gardens change with every season and every year. Many clients and their gardeners consult with us on multiple projects over decades. 

Our Oakland based design studio is conveniently located to serve the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
