Little Miracles Designs

Sasha and his crew at Little Miracles Designs took our oddly shaped, blank-slate terrace and turned it into dream garden. Through every stage, Sasha has been a source of calm, inspired vision, meticulous design and eager care -- and a great sense of humor on top of it. He worked with us through a few strikingly different design proposals in finding the one that best fits the space and fulfilled our wildest hopes for it. He walked us through them patiently and in detail, adjustment after adjustment. He brought the visions to life through recommendations for spaces and plant inspirations in public gardens in the Bronx, Pennsylvania and beyond. Sasha and his crew were attentive and could not have been more courteous during the construction phase. Sasha is always unflappable in response to requests (his most common answer to a request: "of course"), everything from grill selection (and even assembly) to plant adjustments. Since completion, Sasha has continued to tweak plants and other elements of the garden with great care. We could not recommend him and his crew more highly.

Ive worked with Sasha and the team at Little Miracles for years now and it has always been an absolute joy from start to finish. From the initial consultation through to the final touches, their team consistently brings creativity, professionalism, and true passion to whatever they do. They took the time to really understand my vision, offered thoughtful design suggestions I never would have considered, and executed everything flawlessly. The attention to detail is unmatched — every plant, stone, and feature feels intentional and beautifully placed. Beyond the design itself, their crew was reliable, respectful of the property, and left everything spotless each day. The end result completely transformed my outdoor space into something functional, inviting, and stunning — it truly feels like an extension of my home. Friends and neighbors can’t stop complimenting the work. I couldn’t recommend Little Miracles more highly. If you’re looking for a landscaping partner who combines artistry with professionalism, this is the team to trust!

I can't recommend Sasha and his team enough – we enjoyed the process from start to finish. Even after the project wrapped, Sasha has continued to help us source the finishing pieces for our yard and given us helpful tips to care for it. He worked within our budget to give us a space better than we could’ve imagined, being mindful of our longterm goals. Even with our limited budget, he went above and beyond adding thoughtful details like storage benches and tubing for future lighting and irrigation. I also really appreciated that he reused materials where he could (such as some of our existing fencing and our rose bushes), but brought in new materials where it made sense to do so. It truly was the easiest home improvement project we’ve done, with no mess or damage to the rest of our house, panicked calls, or unplanned surprises. We felt very comfortable working with Sasha. He brings a ton of experience to the process and was never pushy with us. Our friends and family couldn’t believe how quickly the project was finished and how amazing everything looked. We’re so happy we were able to work with Little Miracles Design, it was worth every penny!

Sasha and his team did great work on our backyard and we're thrilled to continue working with them for upcoming projects. Sasha was very attentive to our requests and specifications, but also greatly improved our plans with his design expertise. Job foreman Carlos is not only a highly skilled contractor, he is also incredibly attentive, accommodating and kind. We developed a great rapport with Sasha, which made it easy to communicate our preferences and expectations throughout the project. We highly recommend Little Miracles for any outdoor projects.

We are so glad we founds Sasha and Little Miracles Designs. Sasha has a keen sense of landscape design and is a plant expert who goes above and beyond. We had a blank slate in our Brooklyn backyard and he turned it into a functional space with swings, a pergola, deck, greenery, and even space for a hot tub. A highlight is the flower boxes he built -- and planted -- in our front area. Passersby regularly stop to take pictures of the flowers he and the team chose. He and his team are reliable, quick, courteous, professional, and they do high-quality work. And they stand by their work. If they make a mistake, they will fix it. We have worked with quite a few contractors/builders in recent years and Sasha stands out by far as the best. We'd highly recommend Little Miracles Designs to work on your project.

Sasha was wonderful to work with. We pursued a full backyard renovation at our home in Park Slope after experiencing repeat flooding. We knew we needed to do significant work to mitigate the flooding and took the opportunity to redesign our yard to meet our long-term goals as a family. Sasha came in with expertise on how to re-slope, waterproof, and add proper drainage to our property. This was on top of his clear skillset in landscape design. His team was fantastic to work with. Each person involved in working on our property was timely, professional, and respectful of keeping our interior space as clean as possible while bringing backyard material through the house. Sasha was consistently easy to reach, responsive to our needs, and confident in guiding us through a project that began under stressful circumstances (significant interior flood damage). We are thrilled with our new backyard. Before and after photos are included.

Sasha and Carlos did a fantastic job on our terrace! We first got screwed by another company who literally destroyed our terrace and house while charged us double the money. Our building management recommended Little Miracles Designs to help us fixing the situation, and Sasha and Carlos came in the next day. So if you want to work with somebody who is honest, solution-oriented and know it’s business, Little Miracles Designs are the people. Thank you guys!

Sasha and his foreman Paulino and the rest of the crew did an excellent job redoing our garden drainage system, adding waterproofing and installing a beautiful bluestone patio, pot garden, different gardening areas and a gorgeous cedar fence. What an amazing transformation! The team was always responsive, on time and were diligent and efficient, and did excellent work. The project was done earlier than expected, and they left everything cleaner than it was in the first place.

Had a wonderful experience with Sasha, from conception to execution he has been exceptional, with a rare sens of details and perfection.

I was hoping to give Sasha the benefit of the doubt, but I think it's only fair after being hung up on / declining finishing our project that I feel the need to share our entire experience with Sasha for folks to be made aware of the truth. Sasha is a designer with great vision. Unfortunately, he is a terrible business person and consistent with other negative reviews found online, thinks his "experience" designing hundreds of projects allows him to treat his clients like garbage, including missing deadlines, re-negging on promises, and then blaming you for various project failures/issues rather than taking any ownership for his mistakes. We hired Sasha to do a full hardscaping/landscaping project for our 1250sq ft backyard in Brooklyn. We were on what we considered to be a reasonable budget of $50-60k to install a pergola/ platform deck, some custom planters, painting and extending by 18 inches our existing fence, and reshaping our existing artificial lawn. The project was supposed to begin in early April and be completed by early May. The day construction began, he asked my wife and I to make a decision on deck color, paint color immediately - something that we would have assumed he'd have the foresight to ask us well in advance of the project starting. We had to hastily make a decision within 1-2 days, being limited to only what was in stock at the local Lowes. One week into construction, his lead carpenter took a 1 week vacation, which then rolled into a week of rain storms, resulting in a two week delay to the project. There were numerous instances of him trying to take shortcuts, poor ordering planning resulting in further delays (i.e. delivery of Trex deck boards and fence boards), his team not showing up to work on days we had agreed b/c "the weather forecast doesn't look great", his team clocking in workdays of 8am-2pm with a 30min lunch break, and the list goes on. Fast forward to Memorial Day weekend and the project had still not been completed. We agreed to put the plant installation and construction of another planter/bench on hold until this Spring given it was already too hot to plant certain plants/flowers in June 2022. Again, I was hoping to let these prior issues slide if we could simply get our project completed this Spring...which brings me to today. I reached out to Sasha in early Jan to re-engage on the final phase of the project which was not completed last year due to delays. He told me that just doing planting and installing the final bench/planter was not worthwhile for him and wanted to offload the work to someone else. He re-negged on what he had promised us and we are now stuck with no plants in the $6,000 planter he charged us to construct (which is already starting to warp). Oh he also hung up on us after I expressed my displeasure with his service. I would highly recommend avoiding Sasha unless you want to deal with an arrogant yet incompetent contractor. Paid $58,000 for an incomplete yard.

Being a design snob, I researched several portfolios of landscape designers within the Brooklyn area. I fell in love right away with Sasha's designs. What drew me to his work was that he didn't look at the project as a standard box to design in. He thought of ways to design based off the vantage point you enter the garden, which created a very welcoming and beautiful result. He also has an amazing eye for combining different texture, materials, and color. Little Miracles has a passion for landscape design and years of experience. I'm so happy with my garden and I'm excited to soak it up for many years to come.

Sasha was fantastic. He's knowledgeable, creative and easy to work with. He and his team worked quickly and effectively to give us the backyard of our dreams. I'd highly recommend him to anyone considering an outdoor space remodel.
