.Matt came to our house, listened to our likes and dislikes, took pictures and measurements, clarified points. Matt then went back to his office and created a beautiful design that truly reflected what we wanted to accomplish in turning our plain yard into a place offering privacy, protection, and functionality, combined with low maintenance.
Matt has a great sense of scale, color, and an in-depth knowledge of plants not typically found with a design architect.
For the quality of the work product his price is very fair, and actually a good value.
While some may develop a plan for less cost, I doubt the level of thought and detail would equal Matt's quality.
Matt returned to our house and took the time to step us through each plant and feature. He was happy to answer all our questions.
Matt worked with our schedule, delaying his return to match our availability.
I highly recommend Matt for your design needs.
Our next step is to save up and begin phase one in 2014.

Matt was great to work with and did a fantastic job on our landscaping plan! He was professional and created a beautiful and scalable plan that we will be able to use over the years to create the curb appeal that is appropriate for our 100 year home. We appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into his design and highly recommend him to those looking for a landscaper.

NDA was fantastic to work with. Matt is very responsive and gets stuff done when he says he is going to which is unusual (in good way) for this industry where there is often not a lot of professionalism. NDA has a crew to perform small to mid-size landscape projects and his prices are very competitive. I have nothing but good things to say about our experience with NDA and would highly recommend NDA to anyone looking to do a commercial or residentional landscape project.
