Not rushed. Not turned into a pretty picture nobody can build. I grew up on my parents’ 5-acre property helping with ponds, retaining walls, concrete, outdoor lighting, planting, and maintenance. At 18, I co-founded a lawn-care business that grew into a full-service landscaping company in 2006. Over the years, our projects expanded into patios, driveways, large-scale planting plans, outdoor living areas, fire pits, kitchens, water features, drainage, grading, lighting, and long-term landscape maintenance. That field experience matters. It taught me what actually works on site, what causes problems during installation, and what contractors need from a plan. After relocating to Brazil in 2021, I shifted my focus fully into landscape design and sharpened my 3D planning process. Today, I combine hands-on construction knowledge with 3D design so homeowners get clear, buildable plans contractors can actually use. What I help with: ✓ 3D, buildable landscape plans contractors can use to price and build with confidence ✓ Site-specific planting plans tailored to your region and maintenance goals ✓ Patio, walkway, and outdoor living layouts that balance form and function ✓ Lighting and material planning to match aesthetics and performance ✓ Contractor guidance and installation clarity to avoid costly surprises ✓ Practical design decisions before money is spent on construction Clients have said: 🪴 “His 3D renderings became the go-to reference for various contractors.” 🪴 “He wanted to know what WE wanted… and he listened.” 🪴 “Professional, prompt, and exceeded expectations.” I may be a good fit if you’re thinking: “This is my forever home and I want it done right.” “My business needs a better first impression.” “I’m not a landscape expert, and I don’t want to guess.” “The last landscape we did was embarrassing — never again.” Send me a message with 3–6 site photos, inspiration images, your goals, location, and — if you’re comfortable — a rough budget. I’ll review everything and reply with what I think the best next step is. — Mario Ps.
