Rock gardens, retaining walls and fences
Level changes, banks and boundaries turned into natural-looking stone.
Problem plots
Turn a difficult plot into its best feature
Many plots have a problem that can become an asset: a bank by the driveway, a sloping site, a concrete wall, an unattractive boundary with the neighbours.
We build retaining walls styled as natural rock, terrace plots and model level changes, create rock terraces and seating areas, garden grottoes, and fences, posts and prestige boundary features in decorative stone.
The service is primarily for private clients and residence owners, as well as guesthouses, hotels, developers, landscape architects and municipalities that want to turn difficult terrain into a prestige part of a property or public space.

Technology
Hand-carved stone on a sound structure
The decorative layer is built on a properly prepared substrate or on a steel structure with reinforcement and mesh, in hand-sculpted cementitious and polymer-modified systems. Every stone, fissure and fracture is carved by hand, and colour is built up in layers so the rock blends with the planting, paths and façade of the house.
Where a wall retains soil, the load-bearing structure is agreed with a structural engineer and the artistic layer is built on top of it.
Water and frost
A garden works in water and frost
On every project we discuss drainage, drainage behind the wall and access to services. A wall that looks natural has to behave well in winter, and that is decided before any stone is carved.
