“Louisa listened attentively to our requirements for our garden, merged them with her own innate sense of style, and created a glorious palette of color, texture, shape and interest. She transformed our landscape into a paradise that continues to delight us with each change of season. She has an amazing eye for detail and an ability to successfully wed the different dreams of a couple. Louisa was a delight to work with and we look forward to our next project together.”

“Louisa Ernst of Greenspace Designs did a great job redesigning our patchwork rear garden. It was originally a series of disconnected beds and neglected areas, and she pulled it all together into a flowing, very appealing design. Louisa has a highly developed sense of color, form and texture…she immediately saw ways to play existing areas off each other, and introduced new paths and beds to make the disparate parts whole. We love the way her ideas have taken shape…and the garden just keeps getting better as things fill in. Besides having imaginative ideas, Louisa is fun and inspiring to work with. She really listened to what we wanted, and then fine-tuned those thoughts into a workable (read: better!) reality. We highly recommend her skills and talents to anyone considering working with Greenspace Designs.”

“Louisa Ernst is one of those rare people who is both creative and practical!  She keeps her clients’ needs in mind, listens patiently, and guides a problem-solving planning process that encourages considering a variety of approaches to the landscaping.  Louisa has helped me create attractive raised beds and focus areas in my woodland/riparian habitat property. She’s dedicated, dependable, and really lots of fun!”

“Louisa has planned many parts of our gardens for the past several years. We have found her vast knowledge of plants invaluable and her talent for choosing the most suitable spaces for them a wonderful attribute. Her landscape drawings (CAD drawings) were easy to follow which made our job much easier when planting. We would recommend her to anyone.”
