Stefan’s passion for landscape design stems from a young age when he would spend countless hours in the expansive sub-tropical gardens of his childhood homes in Auckland New Zealand and Bali, Indonesia.
He studied Landscape Design and Sustainable Horticultural science in Auckland where he also worked alongside a renowned landscape designer for a number of years. Stefan has designed, installed and project managed landscape projects in New Zealand, Canada and Mexico.
Stefan has brought with him his experience and flair for tropical garden design and has been able to incorporate elements of this tropical flair into his designs and installations of Canadian gardens with great success right here in Revelstoke! He uses suitable cold-hardy plants with lush and lavish foliage with contrasting textures to help create this look. The combination of foliage and accent plants provide colour and bold texture along with selected structural elements and materials that hint towards the tropical garden landscape. By using these garden design principles, Stefan’s designs create a sense of serenity and relaxation - the pure soul of a tropical inspired garden. Stefan has lived in Revelstoke for over 12 years so understands the unique local environment well and uses plants in his designs accordingly to ensure your garden is a growing success!
