MISSION
Our design inspiration comes from a deep love of nature and the elements we harvest and shape from the earth: stone, wood, steel, and a rich variety of flora.
Our designs are grounded in years of construction experience, giving us the knowledge to utilize these materials for highly practical designs that reflect a true commitment to craftsmanship.
We believe your garden is an extension of your home and should provide you a beautiful outdoor living space that enables you to use your garden in a way that enhances your life and your home. Our mission is to get people outside and into the elements.

“Nao designed my garden, and I am very happy with it. Nao has an eye for creating a natural elegance of design, harmonizing plant materials with hardscape such as patio pavers, rock work, benches and stairs. He is a good communicator, eliciting what is wanted from those he works with. He is able to translate his client's ideas and sensibilities into a beautiful form with practical function. I found him to be reliable; he sticks to his projected time table, something rare to find. I couldn't be happier and highly recommend this creative, responsive and responsible designer.”
