The goal with this design was to blur the lines between garden and nature.

The objective was not to overcomplicate or underestimate the importance of a planting plan, but highlight plants’ natural beauty in form, texture and movement. My philosophy is part experiment, part experience. While I like repeating patterning, I also don’t like being too predictable and scripted. I like to learn from nature and find joy in the happen stance of things as a result. Gardens are dynamic and ever changing. I have had the great pleasure of returning to this site, managing, renovating and redesigning additional gardens over the years; a process that is integral in my continued professional growth.
