Transforming Spaces, Empowering Nature
At Hawthorne Garden Design (HGD), we believe that outdoor living spaces should be beautiful, sustainable, and harmonious with nature. Our team of experienced landscape architects and garden designers strive to create functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces that reflect our clients' unique needs and personalities.
Our Philosophy
We are committed to transforming outdoor spaces into spaces for enjoyment, activity, and relaxation. Our design philosophy is centered around the principles of sustainable environmental design, where we consider the past, present, and future of our designs. We believe in using native plants, sourcing local materials, and increasing ecological resilience to create spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and ecologically regenerative.
Our Services
At HGD, we offer a wide range of services to help our clients achieve their outdoor living goals. Our comprehensive design process begins with high-level draft sketches and concept drawings, which are refined as the client needs and site-specific qualities are unearthed. We create 3D models to represent what a complete build would look like, and even in the build stages, changes may be made based on site conditions. Our experienced team of garden designers works closely with clients to ensure that the final build is exactly what they desire.
