Design Portfolio
Our garden designs start with you. We integrate essential elements like raised beds, low-maintenance pathways, vertical structures, and irrigation systems with your individual style and garden goals.
Beautiful gardens don’t happen by accident.
Here we share the stories behind our projects, including before, during, and after photos, plus insight into the installation process that brings each design to life.
Once you're hooked on gardening, it's hard to stop seeing opportunity. A sunny corner becomes another raised bed. A fence becomes a cucumber trellis. Even the air above your tomatoes starts to look like growing space.

Where you place your kitchen garden matters just as much as what you plant in it. A garden close to the kitchen becomes part of dinner, part of your daily rhythm, and part of the beauty of your home.

Spring greens aren’t just a seasonal trend—they’re some of the most nutrient-dense foods we eat all year.

Here’s why your body is craving them—and how to harvest, eat, and store them in a way that actually preserves their benefits.
Behind the traffic on Woodmont Boulevard sits a backyard designed for wandering.

Step inside and explore a garden built for curiosity, play, and the kind of childhood memories that stick.
A midcentury modern gem in Nashville gets a garden to match. With bold black cedar beds, curved native plantings, and stone pathways softened by thyme, this garden balances structure and whimsy—becoming a true extension of the home it surrounds.
It’s easy to feel decision fatigue when getting started on a family homestead. There are so many new things to learn— the garden? chickens? how to compost? But in this new garden tour, Lauren and Jerod took the plunge, purchasing a greenhouse, coop, and shed before they had a fully fleshed out plan. With a little help from TKG, the end result was a beautifully integrated garden.
