We would highly recommend working with Kimberly Mercurio. The landscaping portion of our home in Harwich, MA turned out to be as substantial as the house project itself as we started with essentially a blank slate and the desire for a pool and outdoor area to enjoy for three seasons of the year. Kimberly's restrained style was a perfect fit for what we had hoped the yard could become. She blended existing plants and trees with new plantings as well as nuanced, but stunning stone work (note the wild thyme joints between the pudding stones!). A dry grouted stone wall turned out to be the centerpiece of the yard and will remain for many many decades. She created privacy in areas where it seemed difficult to achieve and yet there is plenty of living, lounging and swimming space too. Kimberly's style and technique are timeless and she is a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.

Kimberly undertook a major landscape project for us in Cape Cod over the course of about 1 1/2 years. The original configuration of our property presented material challenges and required a design that allowed for much more efficient usage of the entire yard. It also necessitated a design that offered the option to build a pool in the future. Everything about the project was connected, no one part could be worked on without planning and working toward the next section. Ultimately it involved bringing in material amounts of soil, regrading most all the property, ensuring there was proper drainage and the building of three architecturally beautiful stone retainer walls. Kimberly regularly communicated with us and the contractor, discussing the most cost efficient approaches, presenting alternatives and ensuring the project was successfully completed within budget and generally in the time frame suggested - given COVID-related delays outside everyone's control. She also worked with us to select and place plantings. We highly recommend Kimberly. She was a professional, very knowledgeable, highly skilled, easy to work with, listened to our desires for the property and delivered her services at a very reasonable cost. We would use her services again without hesitation if the need arose.

Kimberley did an exquisite job on our project on Cape Cod. We put in a pool close to the road (not ideal but no choice), and Kimberley landscaped it so that no one knows it’s there! It’s beautiful, practical and functional. Kimberly’s style is low key, but she is responsive, was sensitive to our views, and over-all a delight to work with. You are lucky if you can get on her schedule!

I am a landscape contractor and have worked together with Kimberly over the last 6 years. She is truly an artist! She takes simple materials and utilizes them in unique ways. Her designs compliment the architecture of each house and blends it into the existing site and the environment that surrounds it. Kim works on ocean front properties, the country side, suburbia or right in the heart of the city. She has done lots of projects with conservation and specializes in naturalized plantings. Kim designs pools, patios, driveways, walks, grading, outdoor entertainment areas, drainage and plantings. We have worked together on several projects and her clients all appreciate her passion, dedication, detail and thought that she puts into every project. I would highly recommend Kim tp anyone, she shows great respect for both her clients and the projects she undertakes. Fred Anderson Owner, Anderson Landscape Construction, Inc.

Last year we built a new home on Cape Cod and had KMLA design the outdoor space which included a pool, fireplace, walls, outdoor kitchen and terraces. We are very pleased with the outcome! Kimberly's vision is exceptional and we couldnt be more pleased with our beautiful landscape. We look forward to using it in the coming years.

It was a pleasure working with KMLA on our landscape restoration project. The team listened to our requests and fulfilled our needs, and the outcome is marvelous! They also helped with the conservation permitting requirements . I would highly recommend Kimberly and her team.

We went to Kim with a list of wishes including hardscape and plantings, and have been delighted with the results. The hardscape, a patio, walkways, walls and a greenhouse are all of beautiful quality, but best of all Kim’s design minimizes some awkward aspects of our house and outbuildings. The driveway was recontoured and now looks graceful and planned instead of impromptu. A meadow plot and a number of new garden beds are now in place. As a plant lover and avid gardener, I appreciated Kim’s knowledge and responsiveness to my many requests. We’ve enjoyed seeing things begin to thrive and look forward to watching the gardens blossom next year.

Kim and her team did a wonderful job with a project that encompassed our entire property. From grading, to wall design, plant selection and project management- Kim is thorough and creative. She delivered us a project that truly exceeded our expectations.

Kimberly was a pleasure to work with and is highly knowledgeable in all facets of landscape design, and especially in incorporating beneficial native plantings to support local wildlife and ecosystems. Our project involved returning over an acre of heavily overgrown land, full of aggressive, invasive undergrowth, back to a healthy and manageable state that is full of native plantings that are both beautiful and beneficial! Kimberly was great a taking any of our ideas or desires and giving excellent feedback and providing plenty of related articles and images. These were all incorporated into a cohesive and well crafted master landscape plan. She was also a great help in getting through the town's Conservation Committee and worked seamlessly with our landscape contractor. I would definitely use Kimberly again for any future projects and give her my highest recommendations for anyone looking for a top notch Landscape Architect!

Kimberly Mercurio has an excellent sense for landscape design -- clean lines, elegant style, and great taste. Kimberly does great work with hardscape (stone etc) as well as plant materials. She takes particular care to select top notch plants and has an especially good eye for selecting gorgeous trees. In addition, she is a pleasure to work with -- thoughtful, detail oriented and collaborative! Kimberly works in the Boston area and also on Cape Cod and the Islands.

Kim was a pleasure to work with. We wanted something green and calming on a relatively small lot. While I have strong tastes, I don't know how to translate them into gardening terms. Kim was great at understanding aesthetic and maintenance goals and giving us creative options. She then oversaw installation with a caring and steady presence. We are thrilled with her work and can't wait until spring.

Kimberly Mercurio is a landscape architect with exceptional taste and high standards. She has provided us with a city garden, filled with beautiful plantings that will bloom during the different seasons of the year. Her design has allowed for an elegant living/entertaining area as well, so that we feel that our garden has become an additional "room" behind our house. The garden is not large, but Kimberly has optimized the space. She is very detail-oriented and particular about every aspect of her project. She is also a great person to work with.
