What we do
We are on a mission to transform homes and landscapes to do the most good and least harm for people and planet.
Our approach combines mindful designs, natural materials, and practical, low-maintenance solutions to bring you joy and peace of mind each and every day.
Design for Health
A consultation focused on select rooms or whole home focused on light, air, materials, acoustics, and sensory experience.
Our review will provide actionable recommendations and an aspirational plan to improve your living spaces.
From there, we can implement the changes you want to see in your home.
Protected gardens
Onsite property assessment of your space, location, and sun positioning to optimize your garden’s production. We will then create a bespoke plant palette and design tailored to your taste.
We provide tiered recommendations with sequencing for build-out and an ongoing maintenance plan that fits your lifestyle from low-maintenance to hands-on.
Resiliency planning
Our property analysis includes an assessment of your property’s potential water, energy, and food resources and opportunities to become more efficient and independent.
Our review is tailored to your site and your priorities. We provide recommendations that first utilize the resources you already have available and additional options to enhance your resiliency against future events.
meadow making
Our meadow-making begins with a review of your land, wildlife, and your vision. We can plan, build, and maintain your meadow or simply provide best guidance and a kit to get you started.
Let us build the meadow that will make you merry.
restoration
The Japanese phrase “mottainai” expresses a deep reverence for resources and best conveys our philosophy not to waste the opportunity of objects to reach their full potential. If you have a beloved object or part of your property that you would like to bring into a new life, let us find a best use for it through repair, restoration, or reuse.
sensory gardens
Sensory gardens are custom gardens designed for adults or children that includes the colors, textures, smells, sounds, and tastes that bring you or your loved ones joy. We bring you back in touch with nature to encourage calmness, tranquility, and peace.
Who we work with
We work directly with individuals and families who are thoughtful about how they live and want their home to be a source of joy, not just a place.
We also welcome collaborators and partners that share our values to join our growing network of re-imagining homes and landscapes.
We are located in Closter, New Jersey with clients in Bergen County, Rockland County, Orange County, and the greater NYC metropolitan area.
