In our landscape design for this Georgian style residence, we adhere to the mantra of “green on green.” The juxtaposition of uniform green hedges with variegated foliage creates a striking visual spectrum. Additionally, strategically positioned topiaries serve to delineate key areas, notably accentuating the entrance to the house.

Site visit in Pago Pago as we begin work on an exciting new commercial project for Samoa Airport. Exploring the landscape and studying the site conditions is always the first step in shaping a design that is both functional and reflective of its setting. More to come as this project takes shape.

Stone, water, and garden come together to create a timeless retreat. The bath house by the pool is softened with climbing vines and surrounded by fragrant plantings that bring color and texture throughout the seasons. Olive trees, lavender, and cypress provide structure and shade, while terraces and pathways connect each outdoor space to the next. Every detail is designed to feel natural, welcoming, and enduring.

Geoff and I are thrilled to embark on an exciting new chapter with Zucker Design Associates. We’re heading to American Samoa to design a new international airport in Pago Pago—the largest infrastructure project ever proposed on the island. This undertaking is not only a bold step beyond residential landscape design but also a meaningful opportunity to create a well-planned space that respects and reflects Samoan culture. It’s a challenge we’re eager to embrace, and we can’t wait to share more along the way!
