Built for Santa Monica

Ocean air is its own client. Salt on the leaves, marine layer mornings, afternoons bright enough to bleach the wrong palette: Santa Monica gardens either love that air or slowly lose to it, and after enough coastal work you learn exactly which plants sign up happily. Those are the ones we design with.

City lots here are tight and the water rules are real, so we draw to the inch and design within the standards. Done right, a compact walk-street lot stops feeling small and starts feeling like a retreat.

Salt-tolerant coastal palettes

Planting chosen for marine air: silvery foliage, coastal natives, and grasses that move in the breeze.

Compact urban gardens

Courtyards, roof-adjacent terraces, and walk-street frontages drawn to the inch.

Water-rule ready

Drip systems and palettes designed around Santa Monica's water-conscious standards.

Santa Monica questions

Coastal natives and Mediterranean species that like marine air: westringia, coast rosemary, dune sedge, silver foliage plants, and sculptural aloes. We design palettes for the salt and the fog, not against them.
