Studio / Vancouver, BC

Built like architecture. Tended like habitat.

Morrow is a small landscape studio where design, construction, and horticulture share the same table.

How Morrow began

The gap was always between the drawing and the dirt.

Morrow began in 2013 after too many good landscape plans lost their intent between designer, estimator, builder, and maintenance crew.

So we built a different kind of practice. Designers price with builders. Builders review drawings before they leave the studio. Horticulturists shape the planting from first palette through establishment. The result is less translation—and landscapes that keep the intelligence of the first idea.

“The garden is not the soft part around the architecture. It is the architecture that changes.”
Four working principles

What the work answers to.

01

The site leads

Slope, water, sun, soil, and existing trees are not constraints to hide. They are the first authors.

02

Fewer, better materials

A restrained material language gains character through proportion, weathering, and craft.

03

Plant for succession

We design how a garden changes—not simply how it photographs the day it is installed.

04

Detail the handoff away

If construction intent lives only in someone’s head, it is not resolved enough.

One table / one field team

Different disciplines. Shared judgement.

Our core team stays deliberately small, supported by trusted arborists, engineers, metal fabricators, and specialty growers.
