Working with Nature’s intelligence to co-create outdoor environments that are free-spirited, functional, and ecologically integrated
Life begins with a single drop of rain
After oxygen, water is the second most important element our lives rely on. But in many regions, water is a resource in short supply.
Our unique process allows our clients to create beautiful outdoor spaces that support living systems and adapt to a changing climate, without creating unnecessary waste.
Every drop of rain can nourish our lives and landscapes
Responsible landscape design is about more than creating a beautiful outdoor space. It’s about being mindful of where every drop of water comes from and where it will go.
By working with Nature’s intelligence – rather than against it – we co-create landscapes that honor every drop of water and release its full potential.
Petrichor is the scent of rain after a long dry period
It represents hope, relief, regeneration, and transformation.
At Studio Petrichor, our methods challenge the status quo. We see the world as one interconnected, interdependent, living system where our actions have a direct impact on our environment and on each other.
Our goal is to educate and empower our clients and communities to create spaces that support and protect Mother Nature’s living systems.
We co-create spaces that strengthen humanity’s relationship with Nature and with one another
