What we do:
Every project begins with an onsite consultation with the client. The natural systems and plants of the site are inventoried and analyzed to have a holistic understanding from the perspective of the ecology. Green View Building & Design Company, Inc. then creates a Master Plan with both site systems and the program of the client in mind, or collaborate to come up with design solutions for smaller challenges – places of refuge within your landscape. We custom design pools, stone and structural features to enhance your living spaces, restore woodlands, wetlands and disturbed sites to biological diversity. We consult with you on land stewardship and ecologically sound vegetable and edible plant garden installation and management. It’s also a priority to help you understand and appreciate the biodiversity of your gardens and to attract pollinators.
Years of experience working with civic and private commissions and attention to detail and communication means that we can guide you successfully through permitting and approvals processes. Whether the scale of your program is to restore or enhance a larger native ecosystem or to create an intimate garden refuge, we specialize in creating designs of lasting beauty and ecological diversity in Cornwall, Litchfield County, Goshen, and Warren, CT.
