Our Hardscape Designs provide the layout for driveways, walkways, pool decks, decks, patios, and other non-plant surfaces. Selecting a product, material or finish can be difficult. JDS provides material and finishing selections to ensure a final product that is cohesive to the overall design concept or theme.

JDS produces landscapes that reduce or eliminate the need for irrigation. Our knowledge of native and non-native plants allows JDS to select the right combination of species to achieve a beautiful low-maintenance landscape while achieving the goals of the client and Xeriscape Design.

At JDS, it’s our goal to make the outdoors an extension of the indoors. Creating a space outside that reflects a theme inside is one way to achieve that. However, the outdoors can have its own theme. Whether you desire an Asian inspired motif to provide relaxation, a Caribbean theme that feels like a vacation or the recreation of a tropical jungle that buffers noise, providing seclusion from the outside world. JDS has the skills and knowledge to make your dream a reality.

At JDS we are committed to the environment and doing our part to make our developing urban environment suitable for people as well as wildlife. Many birds, small mammals and other wildlife become displaced during rapid development. By providing sources of food and water as well as places for animals to hide, live, and raise young a mini backyard ecosystem can help wildlife survive outside of shrinking natural habitats. Since many native plants are used in a backyard wildlife habitat, water requirements and maintenance are low which saves money, resources, and provides a sustainable use for your yard.

JDS provides hand drawn graphics that aid clients in visualizing what a potential space can look and feel like. These may consist of design ideas drawn over an actual photograph, 3D model base, or from CAD drawings.

The use of water features, art pieces, sculptures and furniture make each landscape unique and provide the details that unify a theme and design. JDS can select these items as well as design them.
