This archive links to earlier garden writing, project notes, seasonal observations, and landscape design reflections from Stephen Coan Garden Design.
These older posts include past articles on ecological planting, invasive plants, wildlife habitat, spring garden planning, landscape lighting, and earlier award announcements. They remain part of the studio’s longer body of work and reflect many of the ideas that continue to shape the practice today: plant-forward design, horticultural judgment, ecological awareness, and gardens that support beauty, structure, and life over time.
Some older posts may reference previous business names, earlier websites, older contact information, or past seasons of the practice. For current services, project inquiries, consultation information, and contact details, please use this website.
