Studio approach

Outdoor design that connects planting, paths and everyday comfort.

We balance garden structure, material choices, seasonal planting and practical use so outdoor spaces feel settled and natural.

Thoughtful garden planning

Outdoor rooms, paths and planting zones are mapped around the way you live.

Natural material palettes

Stone, gravel, timber and metal are chosen to age well with the landscape.

Seasonal planting design

Planting plans consider climate, maintenance, texture and year-round interest.

Outdoor living comfort

Dining, shade, lighting and seating are planned as part of the garden experience.

Design philosophy

Gardens planned for beauty, maintenance and real life.

Strong landscape plans make the outside feel more connected to the home, easier to maintain and better for everyday rituals.

  • Map sunlight, circulation and daily outdoor use
  • Choose plants for season, texture and long-term growth
  • Balance hardscape, planting and outdoor furniture
  • Create plans that contractors and homeowners can understand

02

Sun and use review

Light, soil, privacy, routes and maintenance time guide the design priorities.

Outdoor transformation

From underused yard to outdoor rooms with purpose.

A strong landscape plan gives the garden better flow, clearer materials and planting that works with the site.

Before

Garden feels disconnected from the home

The outside space is visible, but not easy to use or move through.

After

Clear outdoor rooms with better flow

Paths, gathering zones and planting edges guide movement and use.

Before

Patio has furniture but no atmosphere

Dining and seating are placed, but lighting, planting and shade feel unfinished.

After

Materials, lighting and planting work together

Stone, gravel, timber, light and plants feel connected instead of pieced together.

Before

Plant choices feel random or hard to maintain

Borders fill slowly, compete with the site or need more upkeep than expected.

After

Seasonal planting plan with easier upkeep

Plant choices support texture, climate and maintenance time across the year.

Evergreen & Stone helped us see the garden as a series of outdoor rooms, not just a lawn and patio.
