This logo image represents the perfect form of nature that is woven into the grid of humanity. It is the Fibonacci Spiral and the Golden Section. My designs are integrating these principles into the landscape.

The landscape is a living, breathing organism. All of the parts are integrated in a system that functions harmonious and interdependent upon one another. Our ethics stand to balance human values and natural systems through the creation of multi-functional space and sensory-rich experiences. Inspired by the wild nature of the Oregon landscape, patterns and processes are borrowed from the native ecosystems and incorporated in the design of residential landscapes.

`

A set of detailed drawings to scale that explain the critical elements of the landscape design through illustration and notes.

`

`

The built structures are the bones of the landscape.

LandArc integrates fine woodwork and creative details when constructing decks, fences, pergolas, and other outdoor structures.

`

A Cedar Patio Covering provides a sheltered space for social gatherings or an outdoor dining room, rain or shine.

`

`

Gates of many shapes and sizes become the threshold from one space to another.

`

The fence is a sculptural landscape element. It is molded to the contours of the land. The fence is not merely a barrier to keep unwanted visitors out. It is an artistic statement to form the skeletal structure that define the edge of landscape space.

`

`

This high-end, premium cedar fence with a horizontal pattern creates a rich contrasting color variation. Lifted Cloud gate headers define the thresholds. A staircase to the deck with stainless steel cable railing provides access to the landscape.

`

LandArc Landscaping & Design is building many outdoor structures from Decks to Garden Sheds. Our innovative designs respond to the needs of the landscape and the client.

`

`

Stone sets the foundation to solidify and ground a landscape space. Dry Creekbeds simulated the illusion of flowing water and create a sence of tranquility.

`

LandArc use natural stone and concrete pavers to construct pathways, patios, and retaining walls.

`

`

Plants bring life into the landscape. They provide food, medicine, habitat, shade, color, texture, and architectural form.

`

Plants native to the region are adapted to the climate and require less maintenance. Banana, New Zealand Flax, Bamboo, and Iris, while non-native they provide architectural diversity with complex textures and colors that creating a sensory-rich experience.

BEFORE

AFTER

A transformed landscape from a flat, underutilized lawn of weeds... To a Dynamic, Interactive, Multi-functional, Sensoryrich landscape with character and vibrancy.

`

Lawn be gone! A low maintenance, naturalized landscape offers diversity with a more aesthetic appeal, creating an eco-friendly solution for your landscape.

`

`

We are creating habitat for beneficial wildlife, including bats, owls, and butterflies. These manufactured habitats are built for lasting durability, aesthetic beauty, and ecological functionality, supporting a balanced ecosystem.
