Landscape architecture / 01

Cobalt
Garden

Outdoor rooms with clear geometry, generous planting, and a little seasonal voltage.

We plan gardens for the way people actually arrive, gather, pause, and return.

02 / What we do

Ground work,
made specific.

Every commission starts with the conditions already present: the slope, the shadow line, the neighbor's view, the morning route to the kitchen.

01 / Private ground↗

Domestic landscapes

Courtyards, entries, terraces, and gardens that give daily rituals a stronger setting.

02 / Shared ground↗

Hospitality places

Arrival sequences and planted rooms for hotels, restaurants, and places built around staying awhile.

03 / Living systems↗

Long view plans

Phased planting, maintenance intelligence, and resilient water strategies for sites that keep changing.

03 / Selected gardens

Four ways to
hold a horizon.

Small studies and complete grounds, read as one continuous landscape language.

04 / How we work

A clear path
through complexity.

We keep the conversation open and the decisions visible, from first walk to first season.

01 / Read

Walk the site

We map light, water, thresholds, and the habits that a plan needs to support.

02 / Draw

Build the armature

Paths, rooms, edges, and planting logic become a shared working plan.

03 / Tune

Choose the living

Materials and species are tested for atmosphere, maintenance, and time.

04 / Keep

Stay with it

We return after installation to see what the garden is becoming.

05 / Start a conversation

Bring us
the ground.

Tell us where the site is, what it asks for, and when you hope to see the first green arrive.
