Start your own revolution of restoration – Restore Outdoors!
Welcome to the Red Bird Design House where together we unearth the goodness in your world – integrating your home with the healing power of nature.

Drawing on special training in the art of residential design and the science of therapeutic gardens – here is your best landscape solution and where a lifetime of renewal awaits: restorative landscapes. 

Your landscape can not only look and function better – it can help you feel better.
A well-designed, crafted and cared for garden that engages all the senses can have a remarkable effect on well-being – satisfying our elemental need for nature. Let’s make your life easier, prettier, more enjoyable, and rewarding. Vitality and rejuvenation sit right outside your door waiting to be revealed: meditate, entertain, exercise, rest, read, harvest. Build memories, age well, and thrive in the space you live. I want your life – your home environment – to be exemplary.

Soulful, supportive landscape design & consultation with you at the heart of it.
The beauty of my practice is found in crafting what is restorative for you.  Red Bird services are a thoughtful fusion of art and science, harmonized with the unique circumstances, needs and desires of each client. I expect my gardens to serve your practical needs and provide for a larger purpose: your wellness, refuge, pleasure and joy.  I see my job as enhancing your life – your living. 

From designing to realizing – the right amount of support now and as you grow.
Respecting your time, investment, and energy, I provide clients with an enjoyable, informed, engaging, and open process – realizing your best landscape solution to suit your life and lifestyle – from resources to get you started to sprucing up with an artful set of planted pottery to a fully designed and installed landscape – ideas for where you are now and where you are growing.  I want you to thrive outside!

Thank you in advance for contacting Red Bird Design to realize your garden refuge. I look forward to sharing the “Red Bird” enthusiasm for growing goodness and creating restorative outdoor spaces.

Ready for unearthing the goodness in your landscape? Ready for a more restorative place? The pleasure is mine, bringing you thoughtful design that crafts your dreams into beautiful, sustained reality.
