Amy Turner Landscape is committed to meaningful, simple design that complements the surrounding context. Green spaces, whether public or private, are constantly evolving. Using elemental local materials such as wood, stone, and indigenous plants, my work aims to renew the environmental integrity of a given space.

Every green space is an opportunity to improve the quality of a space, from urban parks to rural and urban residential properties. Over 15 years of practice have resulted in extensive experience working both with private homeowners and not-for-profit organizations. The challenge in every instance is to find creative ways to fruitfully engage the people who use the space.

The goal is always to provide clients with a clear creative vision for the places they inhabit by taking cues from naturally occurring native plant communities and developing planting schemes that are resilient, functional, and beautiful.

Inspired by the work of scientist, Doug Tallamy, one small urban garden may provide a limited amount of biodiversity, but the cumulative effects of many gardens can result in a habitat of rare complexity and richness. On every project, the purpose is to maximize functions within the space, introduce plant diversity, and contribute to healthy urban ecosystems.
