Before:  Hidden Craftsman Gem

I think before and after photos are fun to look at.  Here is a home on SW 52nd in Portland that went on the market and needed some serious curb appeal to attract buyers.

Their interior designer, Mary Tongue, from HOMEmakers of Oregon hired me for my Landscape Design in a Day process.

The craftsman home had no front walk. Guests walked up the sloped driveway.  The bank of lawn and overgrown plants hid the porch and more importantly, the house did not look inviting.

After:  Warm and Inviting Entry

We crafted an inviting entry path – as well as a four season plant palette – adding instant curb appeal.

Now the house looks and feels friendly and welcoming!  It’s a much better match for the unbelievable charm and beauty of the interior.

I created the design, placed the boulders and stone steps with my expert install team.  We crafted an inviting entry path – as well as a four season plant palette – adding instant curb appeal.  I placed the plants and the clients performed the planting work themselves.
