Founded in 1993 by Ellen Abdow, the firm’s philosophy is to create gardens that seamlessly meld the land to the surrounding architecture and enforce the strengths of the broader environment. No matter how formal or rustic, these gardens are meticulously designed to exude a sense of ease and beauty so that it seems they have always properly existed, without drawing attention to man’s hand in their creation. Ellen Abdow and her team pride themselves on three main things: understanding the clients' individualized needs and aesthetic preferences, assessing the environment's specific demands, and utilizing their deep horticultural knowledge base.
