Jewel Box Garden in West U.

The choice of many an urban dweller to live in easy access to cultural centers of Houston has typically meant more efficiently proportioned green spaces. The lack of expansive gardens does not have to mean that life out of doors must be relegated to an occasional barbecue session or merely a place for a pet to enjoy nature. Instead, we believe that through the careful application of classical greenscape design, proportioned to the particular home and garden, a complementary outdoor room can be created, which will provide endless enjoyment for the residents and add value to their home.

​Particularly when lot sizes are not extremely large, the potential views from every angle must be maximized, as must the outward views from the house. We believe that the key attributes of many a garden are interest and mystery (and perhaps whimsy), but as in cooking, the precise balancing of ingredients and flavors is critical. Too much or too little of anything is immediately apparent and leaves the project with unattained potential. Our Jewel Box Gardens are designed to take a little bit of your breath away every time you go outside.
