Your property. One coordinated plan.
A landscape that belongs to your home.
For an Old Town Niagara-on-the-Lake property, begin with the building, established garden and address-specific heritage context. A courtyard, stone terrace or pool can be considered within a coordinated plan for access and retained features. Use restrained materials and deliberate transitions so new work supports the property’s character.
Landscape architecture
Coordinate the arrival, garden rooms and circulation through landscape design. Explore a complete vision for estate living.
Pools & outdoor living
Connect an in-ground pool with its terrace and a cabana or pavilion, with access and support spaces planned together.
Driveways & stonework
Bring estate driveways, steps, terraces and retaining walls into a coordinated material and grading plan.
Coordinate the pedestrian route, landings, steps and driveway edge around the house’s proportions. Check finished levels before choosing a stone pattern. A restrained material palette can connect new work to older architecture while allowing different spaces to have their own character. For any property with a heritage context, establish the applicable address-specific review before committing to alterations.
- Door thresholds and landing dimensions
- Vehicle and pedestrian routes considered together
- Samples against the existing architecture
- Property-specific review where relevant
Questions for your project
Resolve the important details early.
When should heritage considerations enter the landscape brief?
At the beginning, where they apply to the property and proposed work. Establish the relevant review before ordering structures or committing to alterations that depend on a particular footprint.
What should we provide for a meaningful project discussion?
Share your address, photographs of the garden and construction access, a survey if available, the features you want to retain and your priorities. An intended budget range and timing help define the scope. Ask proposals to distinguish preparation, construction, finishes, allowances and restoration.
Feasibility and any required reviews depend on the address and proposed work. Confirm the applicable municipal and site requirements before treating a concept as an approved construction plan.
