Regionally Appropriate Landscapes
We are landscape architects who imagine and design outdoor spaces in the Sacramento Valley, Bay Area and northern Nevada. We launched Great Valley Design in 2008 to focus on high quality, resilient landscapes for communities, businesses, public agencies and homeowners. Through our work, we reach for places that blend appearance, function and meaning.
Carefully used, the design process starts with common elements and produces different results each time. We consider each project as a process and not a product. Our approach starts with the expectations of clients and site users, and adds our experience with materials, methods, costs and constraints; always respecting the context of our work.
Visual simplicity, seasonal change, a touch of hand craft or implied history; all components of classic design.
Project Types:
Community Planning
Commercial, Corporate and Campus Landscapes
Parks, Open Space and Habitat
Residential Gardens
