PHILOSOPHY
Every landscape evolves over time. I want the design process, from conception to installation, to reflect and honor the cycles of growth and maturity within nature while integrating the needs of the client. Creating a meaningful, lost-lasting natural environment requires listening to the client, to the space, to nature, and to the architecture, then giving voice through a design.
ABOUT ROXANNE
Roxanne grew up in Fargo-Moorhead, and the soil-rich Red River Valley provided her many forays into gardening. She began planting and nurturing vegetable gardens at five years of age, and learned to love growing and eating vegetables of all types. By the time she was 16, she was providing professional garden maintenance services to her community. This work opened up a once quiet and introspective young person, leaving her with a lifetime of lessons that also funded her college education. Needless to say, Roxanne believes a life with your hands in the earth leads to a full and healthy journey within the world.
Roxanne has degrees in Business Administration, Environmental Science, and Landscape Architecture. Her professional path has followed less-than-traditional tracks: she worked for others at a landscape design-build firm, a concrete & masonry company, and a local boutique nursery for over 18 years, deepening and expanding her knowledge base in this ever-evolving, multifaceted work. Roxanne is absolutely fascinated by plants, construction, and stone, and by the interface between them, making a career in landscape design a perfect choice. What has always remained vital and interesting for Roxanne is that she flourishes beyond a world seated behind a desk and is most often found outdoors investigating, creating, or simply absorbing all things in nature.
In 2012, Roxanne took the leap of faith to start her own landscape business.
Green Space, LLC. is a landscape design and build firm offering design, installation, consulting, and garden maintenance services. We create landscapes in step with nature that are set apart by design. Although Roxanne has been in the “green industry” for decades, she remains enthusiastic about her work as a Landscape Creative & Project Overseer. Her many work and life experiences enrich every nature-based interaction she creates with others outdoors. She and the Green Space team look forward to working with you.

INSPIRATION from NATURE
“It was as if you called me deeper into myself as I considered a plan for the front yard. The plan you prepared (swiftly) was so beyond my imagination, and felt genuinely me.”
