Urban Farm

Farms are magical places. Rows align neatly inside grids, the eye sees forever, fields disappear into the sunset. This is a private 36 acre functioning farm.

A garden Upgrade

We started with a sublime  15 year old garden designed by  BattersbyHowat. Our job was to respectively and thoughtfully upgrade the landscape by first accommodating the clients sculpture collection all while integrating the "new" design with the "pre-existing" jewel. By understanding the "design language" of the garden and by retaining all the large trees, site lines and grading, we gently revised the understory planting,  added to and expanded on existing courtyards,  walkways, fencing, entry gates and steps, positioned the sculptures into the new courtyards, and finally topped everything off with new landscape lighting. We hope the result is a garden that reflects and respects the pre-existing masterpiece.

The sites strong East West horizontal spine is reflected in the landscape and architecture  unifying the built forms with the natural topography.
