Designer and Owner
The team creating your new outdoor living space consists of Tori Mallory (Designer and owner) and three Thumbless dogs who ensure morale and quality are up to snuff.
As a career designer, Tori became a Certified Permaculture Landscape Designer through Oregon State University after years as a Costume Designer and Corporate Partnership and Program Manager for a Sustainability-focused CPG company. Additionally, she is
trained in Earth Architecture through the Cal Earth Institute and has studied Regenerative Agriculture and Horticulture through
community-based programs and classes.
Sustainable landscape design studio
Sustainable?
A bit of a broad term, isn't it? Sure, our designs might sequester
carbon, capture and store rainwater and energy, produce food and
medicine, improve wildlife habitat, and require less maintenance than a
traditional lawn... and that makes them more environmentally
sustainable. But what makes them socially and economically sustainable
is that they are customized to your lifestyle, ecoregion, and budget,
and will become a living space full of beauty and reciprocity you won't
be able to get enough of.
