Robert’s approach
With a true passion for design and horticulture, Robert’s signature planting style reflects a thoughtful and respectful process, including meticulous consideration of every aspect of each site and its architecture. His principles are to:
Show restraint when selecting a material palette
Achieve healthy movement and circulation throughout a space
Incorporate environmentally conscious methods resulting in sustainable outcomes
Ensure proportional balance between the botanical elements and the built forms
Robert focuses on the connections of the site; physical, historical and metaphorical. He not only considers site conditions, aspect, and style of architecture, but also ensures the personality, individuality and lifestyle needs of his clients are enhanced by the landscape.
