Who says a steep side yard is useless?

With thoughtful design, even the most challenging spaces can become places to enjoy. We transformed this steep slope into a beautiful transition from the driveway to the backyard oasis - with a sunset firepit patio, boulder retaining walls, limestone steps, Corten steel walls, raised planting areas, and layers of native plants.

Challenging site. Beautiful opportunity.

It’s officially Tree Week in Kentucky, and there’s a LOT happening across the state to celebrate! We’ve put together a few lists of events happening throughout Kentucky in a community near you. Get outside, learn something new, plant a tree, and show a little love to the trees and natural spaces that do so much for us:)

How lucky are we to live in communities where people come together to appreciate, protect, plant, learn, and connect! Healthy communities and healthy landscapes don’t happen by accident- the difference starts with all of us.

Search “Tree Week Kentucky 2026” on Facebook or visit the UK Urban Forest Initiative’s Tree Week page to find events and all things trees near you. https://ufi.mgcafe.uky.edu/treeweek

And, of course, trees are a huge part of what we do. During the landscape design process, we’re thinking well beyond how a tree looks today - mature canopy size, placement, site conditions, how it will interact with the architecture and surrounding landscape, and the many ecological benefits it can provide for decades to come. Plant for today, design for the future. Happy Tree Week Kentucky!🌳

It’s been a busy couple of months of learning, exploring, and getting inspired!

In September, our designers headed to the Association of Professional Landscape Designers conference in Columbus, with inspiration from Jeff Epping, Chicago Botanic Garden , Nick & Allison McCullough of McCullough's Landscape & Nursery. Andrea especially loved the Makers Tour.

Our team enjoyed Plant Trials Day at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden-always one of our favorite educational events.

Closer to home, Amanda and Jewell represented IOD at GreenFest, a sustainability festival at Buckley Wildlife Sanctuary. Our office team spent a day touring client gardens, learning from the landscapes we’ve helped create (and even getting a peek at an impressive KISS collection). Thank you to our clients!

Always learning. Always growing.

A quaint sitting spot in the garden where the rigid edge of natural stone boulders are met with soft and looming 'Blue Fortune' Agastache. Other featured plants include liatris, sedge, native grasses and monarda.

Outreach project check in! We took a quick visit to our local sculpture park and got to see some community members enjoying the dead hedges we built and donated in 2023. It truly is a serene spot and a wonderful place to immerse yourself in nature. JSP offers walking trails across their property with so many sculptures to view and some to interact with, throughout.

Concepting is an essential part of creating a beautiful, cohesive outdoor space. Every project evolves through thoughtful exploration and refinement as we find the right fit for your home, lifestyle, and surroundings.

We’re here to help you consider every detail and possibility, then carry that vision through from design and construction to the ongoing care of your space.

Well-designed hardscapes do more than look beautiful, they make everyday life better.

More efficient parking. A pond that brings wildlife and tranquility closer. A fire pit that becomes a favorite gathering place.

Thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship creates spaces that fit the way you live and places where memories are made for years to come. Those are investments you’ll be glad you made.
