DREAM.
Design.
Each landscape carries it's
own rhythm, its own way of asking to be met. Through site study, presence and collaboration, I learn what the land is saying and
translate that conversation into clear form.
I identify the
unique rhythms
of each microclimate
letting the land speak
what it needs.
Through site observation and
client collaboration, together we translate inspiration into
clear structural form.
WEAVE.
Build.
I work hands on with
trusted partners
established through
cultivating long lasting
relationships. I draw from a broad material palette coupled with a refined and inherent design sensibility and together we bring the vision and intent of the project to life with care,
harmony and intent.
Each choice I make is guided by balance- between design and ecology, craft and intuition. The relationship of everything coming together through synergy.
STEWARD.
Maintain.
Stewarding is the quiet devotion to caring and nurturing- whether I have created the garden
or have been invited
to tend and co-create an existing one, I approach each space
with the same commitment: to cultivate beauty, support health,
and leave the land
more whole
than I found it.
I steward each season as it always reveals something new, the garden is ever revolving and coming into form.

relationships. I draw from a broad material palette coupled with a refined and inherent design sensibility and together we bring the vision and intent of the project to life with care,
harmony and intent.
Each choice I make is guided by balance- between design and ecology, craft and intuition. The relationship of everything coming together through synergy.

Stewarding is the quiet devotion to caring and nurturing- whether I have created the garden
or have been invited
to tend and co-create an existing one, I approach each space
with the same commitment: to cultivate beauty, support health,
and leave the land
more whole
than I found it.
I steward each season as it always reveals something new, the garden is ever revolving and coming into form.

Design.
Each landscape carries it's own rhythm, its own way of asking to be met. Through site study, presence and collaboration, I learn what the land is saying and translate that conversation into clear form.
I identify the
unique rhythms
of each microclimate
letting the land speak
what it needs.
Through site observation and
client collaboration, together we translate inspiration into
clear structural form.

CHRISTOPHER T. STRYKER:
B.S. horticulture/landscape architecture
Designer/ Horticulture & Garden Specialist
With a professional practice rooted in intentional craftsmanship,
I cultivate spaces as organic living systems—each woven with
purpose and care.
Holding a degree in Horticulture and Landscape Architecture
from Temple University in Philadelphia, I bring
30+ years of experience and wisdom to the table.
My journey spans both East and West coast landscapes,
where I've collaborated on public and private gardens
that honor native and regional ecologies and
human connection alike.
My process begins with listening.
To you, the land, and what already lives there and what
wants to come through. Together we shape a space that
reflects belonging,ecological coherence,and
quiet sanctuary.
