Hardscapes

Beautifully Blending the Natural and Built Environment

Hardscapes create the bones of a garden. Paths, terraces, walls, and specialty elements like firepits and water features give form and function to outdoor rooms. Some gardens require significant infrastructure, such as walls, to create level, livable spaces. Every intervention, whether small or large, is carefully designed to dovetail with the overall artistry of the garden.

Residential Hardscaping

The quality of construction often determines whether a garden lasts only several years or ages gracefully over time. For more than twenty years, DabneyCollins has built gardens with a special attention to longevity and craftsmanship. Our ongoing relationships with clients allow us to revisit and interact with gardens for years and even decades after their initial installation.

Commercial Hardscaping

This review process is invaluable; we learn from any mistakes and refine best practices over time based on real field results. Internally, we have cultivated a multi-generational team and a deep bench of specialists. As our knowledge is refined, those resources and tools are shared. We are always experimenting, learning, and improving.
