Sundew Design specializes in design for sustainable landscapes, water conservation and energy efficient homes.
Sustainable landscapes are designed to be beautiful outdoor spaces that are locally adapted, conserve energy and water, build healthy soils, promote native plant communities, support and create wildlife habitats and save homeowners time and money. Design | inspiration
Drawing on native Colorado landscapes and knowledge of the ecology of native plant communities, we create a custom plant palette of native and adapted species that match the elevation, aspect, climate, soil, and site conditions of the project site and recommend strategies for the culture and propagation of the restored plant community. By planting the dominant species from one or more plant communities and using associated species that naturally occur together, we encourage nature to return to the landscape.
Incorporating water-saving systems in irrigation, gray water reuse, rainwater diversion, solar power, low-voltage landscape lighting and other green technologies, while utilizing locally available materials, we aim to be at the forefront of the movement to change the way we impact the landscape and environment.
