Margie and her team completely redid our landscaping, which consists of just over 1/4 acre. The existing landscape was mostly lawn dominated by two very large old trees--one in front, one in back. It was formal, geometric, water-intensive--and boring. Margie reimagined our front and back yards, taking out the lawn and replacing it with winding gravel paths, fountains, and colorful but drought-tolerant flowers, shrubs and grasses. Throughout the process she provided lots of ideas but was always attentive to what we wanted, even when we weren't sure ourselves. She was also sensitive to cost considerations. Now, we sit on our back patio and feel like we're at a resort. Really. Thank you, Margie.

We purchased our casual home in the hills overlooking Santa Barbara and the ocean as a retreat from the harsh New England winters. We were fortunate to engage Grace Designs to do the landscape design. Margie and her team were a delight to work with, and have beautifully transformed the landscape to optimize ocean and vast national Forrest views, carefully using drought tolerant and fire resistant plants. She also incorporated boulders, a cedar hot tub, an antique fountain, large pots and even recommended outdoor furniture to create an outdoor living ambience that's as comfortable to enjoy as it is beautiful to look at. Her team's attention to detail and service follow through are extraordinary. We couldn't be any happier and would highly recommend Grace Designs to anyone seeking exquisite taste in landscape design.

Margie is a force of nature -- creative, inspiring and gets it done. She listens to the land and beautifies what she sees. She respects resources, re-purposes what you already have and brings in the best. Her crew is fantastic and a pleasure to work with. We would hire her again...and again! Joy Leach and Rich Goodstein

Working with Margie Grace and her team is always a wonderful experience. Grace Design Associates are creative, knowledgeable yet sensitive to meeting budgetary requirements. With Grace Design Associates we know we will have a coordinated effort to create complementary designs for the landscape, architecture and interiors. In our most recent project with Grace Design we received the 2013 Santa Barbara Beautiful Award for a Single Family Estate.

Grace Design truly has an eye for beauty. We have worked with Grace Design for several years and have been continuously amazed with the elegance that they bring to an outdoor space. As a manufacturer we are confident that our materials will be incorporated into another incredible design by Grace Design!

With a challenging site and good clients who want to be involved in the details we trusted Margie to the task of helping them achieve a garden retreat that had to be exceptional. Margie and her team delivered and was able to strike the balance between aesthetic quality and cost, while implementing the build out on a tight schedule. Margie is hands on and a great trait of hers is the ability to make field decisions that take advantage of situations that reveal themselves late in the process. The Owners ended up with a wonderfully designed and executed landscape that is an integral part of how the home is experienced.

I have worked with Margie personally on a project and through referral. Each experience with Margie has been the highest level of professionalism in this industry. Margie gave us a price, delivered on time and more than we expected on our project. Margie listened to what I wanted to see in my project and fulfilled all my expectations! I would refer her over and over.

We recently purchased a home in Mission Canyon where Grace Designs had done the landscape. It was a stunning job, very respectful to the beautiful and unusual site, and a major factor in our decision to buy the property.

Accolades galore for the Grace team. Mostly I worked with Margie and Ariel and the compliments abound. Admittedly I am a perfectionist about my "nest" and also admit to being a garden fanatic, so I had high hopes for this crew and they delivered. With any project, the very hardest part is getting the loose ends tied up at the close, and the Grace team came through, always willing and ready to make things right. Creative about plants, creative about the mechanics of landscaping, and , most of all, hard working. One could not ask for more.

After running into a roadblock on a landscaping project after having spent tens of thousands of dollars with a landscape architect we foun Grace Designs. We didn't think we'd be able to afford them because their work looked so wonderful. As it turned out they gave us a very realistic and objective assessment, a creative solution and a reasonable price. We moved forward and could not be happier both with the result and the process. What a great team to work with! We have conducted a number of construction projects over the years and until working with Grace designs have always been over budget and behind schedule. This project was a refreshing exception. We ended up with a beautiful landscape that we enjoy every day. If we ever have a need to landscape in the future they will be the only firm we call.
