INTERNATIONAL LANDSCAPE DESIGN & PLANNING

Landscape and site planning support for projects beyond the USA

I provide international landscape design and site planning consulting services for expatriates, property owners, developers, and project teams working outside the United States—particularly in regions with a strong U.S. and international expat presence. Many international projects involve unfamiliar regulations, different construction practices, and environmental conditions that differ significantly from those in the U.S. My role is to help clients navigate these challenges by providing clear, experience-based guidance during the early planning and concept stages of a project. I work in an advisory, design-focused capacity—assisting with site organization, landscape strategy, grading and drainage intent, and environmental considerations—while coordinating with locally licensed architects, engineers, and consultants who remain responsible for permitting, approvals, and regulatory compliance. International engagements often include residential, resort, mixed-use, and environmentally sensitive projects where thoughtful planning and practical decision-making are critical. Services may be provided remotely, on site, or through a hybrid approach depending on project needs. Typical International Consulting Services Include: Site feasibility and early planning analysis Landscape concept and master planning Site organization, grading, and drainage strategy Environmental and land-use sensitivity guidance Design review and owner-side advisory services Coordination support with local architects, engineers, and consultants Professional Scope International consulting services do not include local permitting, plan stamping, or acting as the professional of record. All regulatory approvals and construction documentation are prepared and submitted by appropriately licensed professionals within the project jurisdiction. This consulting model allows expatriate clients and international project teams to benefit from experienced, independent design and planning guidance while ensuring full compliance with local laws and professional requirements.
