About Us
We are a Brooklyn based, full-service, landscape design and construction company specializing in a variety of urban garden design for rooftops, backyards, front yards, terraces for residential and commercial clients in the New York City area. We've been design, installing and maintaining gardens for over 20 years on both sides of the Atlantic. For the last 15 we’ve been in New York!
We have seen many garden spaces and solved many garden design problems and came up with many garden installation solutions. (Not to mention resolving issues with drainage, sudden plant death, escapee weeds, fallen trees, and all other damages by mother nature) and we still get very excited by new garden spaces and their potential transformations.
The garden is not just a selection of plants, but a living illustration always changing in color, texture and effect. It offers a natural sanctuary from the world and a constant reason to throw a party or to have breakfast outside. We design it with timing in mind so that blooming flowers and budding leaves are synchronized with each other throughout the seasons and years.
For those interested in the monetary value of their home, it increases it. For those who would love more room to live, escape and entertain, the garden makes you wonder what you ever did without it—no matter how big or small. And for kids and dogs, a garden is laughter and wagging tails.

We engaged Outside Space to redo our backyard in Brooklyn and they did a great job all around. We interviewed several contractors- one never gave us an estimate, a couple of others made the job seem much more complicated and lengthy than it needed to be (read much more expensive!). Edward’s team was very reliable, professional, courteous, and efficient. Edward was also very responsive and accommodating to changes to the job that we wanted after the project had started - and the cost of the change orders was also very fair. They finished the entire job on time and within the budget. Lastly, we were very impressed with his willingness to return and make some minor adjustments after the job was completed and paid in full. We would recommend Outside Space without reservation to anyone who needs a landscaping architect.

They were incredible to work with. Professional, detailed and fair. I was impressed with their quality of work. And their passion for the product. They were also significantly cheaper than other similar proposals. John.

2017- Brooklyn NY
The initial response time from OutsideSpace NYC was good. A few emails later, Edward was on site on April 21 to measure and assess. He was warm, attentive and receptive to all the ideas I had. He asked that I give him a few weeks to submit his plan, projected costs and timeline. That request seemed reasonable to me.
A month went by. I reached out via email if he had made any progress on the plans. He last replied on May 18 that he would have something over to me by the weekend.
I never heard back from him.
If he didn't want to take on my project or suddenly became overbooked, some early and honest communication would have been appreciated. I lost precious time.
I never got to see a completed project. I needed to start my search again for another landscape company.

Outside Space built us a beautiful roof deck in Brooklyn that earned many compliments from friends over the years. Edward designed a functional and attractive space that utilized synlawn to create a "grassy" for kids to play, an ipe deck that weathered well over several seasons, and the perfect amount of fencing for privacy. The project was done on time and at budget. When we needed small repairs years later after a major storm, Outside Space responded quickly, fitting us into their busy schedule. We highly recommend Outside Space.

Edward and the team are amazing. Designs are beautiful and work with client's ideas and style. Building solutions are creative and keep costs down without cutting corners. Follow up, and care about the finished product let you know they really care and love what they do. I love my garden and it looks as good today as 5 years ago when we put it in.

We are delighted with the work Outside Space NYC did on our terrace. Edward came up with a great construction and irrigation plan and Irene put together a remarkable planting plan, worked in our budget, and executed the plan to add a beautiful pergola and planters filled with a variety of plants that added incredible color and life to our space. The final invoice for our original work came in slightly under budget.
Our terrace is constantly filled with new blooms and color from spring to fall. The additional shade and plant life has made the terrace an incredible extension of our living space and a terrific place for our daughter to play and enjoy nature. We continue to use Outside Space NYC for additional work, maintenance and seasonal care and are always thrilled with their work.

Fantastic to work with, helped us bring to life a custom idea we wanted to build. Prompt and good communicators. We love our fence and have neighbors ask us who built it for us.
