My approach to landscape design

Every project begins with understanding how you live and what you want your outdoor space to feel like. I design landscapes that are both beautiful and functional, creating spaces that evolve naturally and feel like a seamless extension of your home.

Hi, I’m Rita!

My interest in gardening design started with my own outdoor space years ago when I imagined its potential and made it happen with hard work and dedication to the principle of “right plant - right place.” Eventually, I decided to take my interest to a professional level and in 2015 I graduated from the University of Guelph in Landscape Design. Since then I have worked on hundreds of designs and every one has been a new and exciting opportunity to create a beautiful space to enhance curb appeal or backyard enjoyment.

I am a member of Landscape Ontario and use DynaSCAPE software.
