Testimonial
“Sander Freedman is an incredibly professional and skilled landscape architect who worked with me to create my very own bit of “South Beach” right in my backyard. His sense of balance and geometry paired with clean lines and a creative flair resulted a yard that exceeded my expectations. Sander is easy to work with, takes the time to listen, and worked patiently with me to make my vision a reality. I highly recommend Sander for any outdoor project you may be considering.”

Testimonial
“We live in downtown Toronto and decided to re-do our small backyard, which was in bad shape. We spoke to many landscaping companies who also did design. The designs they showed us were not necessarily bad, but were not that interesting. Also, many of these companies were based outside downtown Toronto, and they proposed for us features which were more suitable to big suburban properties. We had a small space, and really wanted to bring a high quality of design to it, to both increase the feeling of space by good design, and to transform the space into a sanctuary amid the busy city.
After seeing more than a few companies, we finally met Sander. He is a truly friendly and creative guy. He and his design team worked hard with us to create a very colourful and interesting design which completely transformed our backyard from a falling down mess to a colourful well-designed respite from the busy city. I highly recommend Sander and his team. He also recommended a contractor to do the work, and the contractor was excellent. We would use Sander again, should be need to do more outside design.

This contemporary garden room has the look, feel and scale of any well designed interior room, translated to an outdoor environment, using suitable materials. The size of the garden is meant to be suitable for a small scale ‘urban’ situation, be it a terrace or a town house backyard. However, an outdoor room is easily incorporated into any size garden as part of a successful design. Green elements such as the salvaged wood in the floor design and decorative screens are incorporated where possible, to promote sustainability.

People’s Choice Award – Canada Blooms 2007
Canada Blooms 2007 – East meets West
The intent for the booth was to create a space that reflects Sanders interest in Eastern culture. Sander wanted to create a space that is pleasing to the senses, as well to provide a haven for inner calm, a space where order and geometry is steeped in tradition, symbolism and meaning. Easter and western elements in the garden symbolize both cultures and a sculpture knot represents their tying together. An old timber gateway salvaged from a property in Ontario is mirrored by a lattice screen with a Chinese moon gate. Bamboo behind the Moon Gate symbolizes the Chinese bamboo forest. Chinese calligraphy and painting from a local artist show art from both cultures.
The booth won the People’s choice award in the small garden category.
