We are beyond grateful for the services Gonzalo provided to our community group, Friends of the Lakeview Summit Steps. Gonzalo was our group’s volunteer landscape designer and partnered with us for over two years, working to mobilize the community in the planning of a greenspace and staircase on a challenging, neglected hillside lot located in San Francisco’s Oceanview-Ingleside neighborhood. He analyzed the site, researched access and safety requirements, listened to community members’ feedback in monthly meetings, and engaged with city officials in both the Public Works and SF Parks Alliance departments. His patience was boundless and the level of professionalism he brought to the project was unparalleled. I was especially impressed with how he adeptly navigated longstanding neighborly disputes and guided heated discussions with dissonant ideas towards amiable concessions. Gonzalo then delivered designs to lay the groundwork for a long-term sustainable landscape, including: Grading, drainage, hardscape, planting, signage and lighting. Gonzalo has continued to make himself available for any questions the city agencies and our community group have during the lengthy process of making this greenspace a reality. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have partnered with Gonzalo on this project. Thanks to Gonzalo, we arrived at a set of spectacular plans that could someda beautify our neighborhood and be enjoyed by a wide cross-section of the community.

Gonzalo completed a proposed landscape design with layout, planting, lighting and irrigation for the front courtyard of our Sea Ranch home. At the core of the design was a California native plant palette - featuring plants that were well-suited to the unique site conditions. Gonzalo took the time to understand our needs and make recommendations to help our long term planning for the landscape.
