Work directly with a Registered Landscape Architect

Our highly skilled Registered Landscape Architect, Mary Dresser, raises the bar for creating landscapes that inspire and endure. It’s important to note that, unlike many other firms that have only landscape designers on staff, Registered Landscape Architects must undergo more thorough training and obtain more comprehensive degrees, allowing them to bring a higher level of expertise and innovation to each project.

Aesthetics meets technical elements

Beyond the aesthetics and the goals for your project, Mary also takes into consideration things that wouldn’t occur to most of us, such as neighboring properties, regulatory compliance, sustainability, and a host of other technical pieces that go into creating an outdoor oasis.
