WOOD
Wood brings warmth, texture, and craftsmanship to the landscape—from simple fences, decks, and pergolas to custom structures with more intricate architectural designs.
We work with sustainably harvested redwood, mahogany, cedar, reclaimed wood, and select composite materials, choosing each material for its character, durability, and suitability to the site.
California redwood is strong, durable, and naturally resistant to insects and decay without chemical treatments. Harvested from sustainably managed California forests, it is relatively renewable, biodegradable, and one of the more environmentally responsible building materials available.
We also use sustainably grown Fijian mahogany, a refined hardwood valued for its smooth finish, dimensional stability, and minimal knotting. It offers a rich appearance and durability while remaining more approachable than many tropical hardwoods such as Ipe.
