I recently found this interview by David Bowie. I agree.
When checking boxes, my work is droll and lifeless—my designs are like a pile of boxes left out for recycling.
I work with nature, combining traditional knowledge with intuition, creating unique landscape solutions.
Always go a little further into the water than you feel you’re capable of being and go a little bit out of your depth.
David Bowie

Rotely mulching gardens or making tidy balls out of shrubs is unacceptable.
If you want more, that’s what I do.
