EVERY PROJECT TELLS A STORY
Our work reflects the shared vision of client and collaborator, brought to life through disciplined construction and thoughtful care. Below is a selection of recent landscapes, each a lasting example of what’s possible when expertise meets intention.
LEDGEWAY GARDENS
This Brookline garden unites old and new by sculpting native puddingstone ledge into terraced outdoor rooms. Repurposed stonework, woodland plantings, and layered pathways create a rhythm of gathering spaces rooted in the site’s natural character and architectural history.
APPLETON HOUSE
A private courtyard in Beacon Hill blends classic structure with softness using custom lattice, granite, and turf nestled beneath honey locust trees. Framed by hydrangea and boxwood, a fireplace and water features create a quiet sanctuary within the city.
PUDDINGSTONE PARK
Carved into a hillside of native puddingstone, this landscape celebrates the material character of the site by repurposing stone from on-site blasting into both architectural and garden masonry.
It Starts with a Vision
Every successful landscape begins with a vision. At Michael S. Coffin we define our success by bringing that vision to reality. We work closely with landscape architects, engineers, architects, general contractors, and you - the client - to execute the most creative designs with the highest level of craftsmanship.
