PROJECT DETAILS

Landscape

.75 Acre
Completed 2023
_
Claverack, New York

What began as a weekend house for a young couple in the LES quickly became their year-round home. Landscaping was essential to transform what felt like a suburban plot across from a Tree farm into a garden retreat, complete with vegetable garden, fire pit, native meadows, and plenty of privacy planting with trees and hedges of hornbeam, privet & roses.

So often on projects the garden is phased to accommodate the lifestyle and goals for the client. We look forward to developing the “goth garden” at the back of the angular property with a spiral path and black flowers. It’s our take on a secret garden customized for the client.
