Ginkgo Leaf Studio is a licensed landscape design firm in Cedarburg, WI, founded by James Drzewiecki, Assoc. AIA. With a degree in architecture from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and over 12 years of experience at one of Wisconsin's largest landscape design/build firms, James combines architectural knowledge with a deep passion for plants and nature. His background includes a minor in Art History focused on historic architecture, which informs his application of scale and proportion in creating outdoor spaces.

Recognized as a Best of Houzz award winner since 2012, Ginkgo Leaf Studio focuses on bridging the gap between architecture and landscape, emphasizing exceptional design and attention to detail to create inspired outdoor environments tailored to each client's needs.

Common Questions

How does Ginkgo Leaf Studio address common local issues like soil compaction and standing water in Cedarburg yards?

We start by assessing your property's specific drainage patterns and soil conditions, which are common challenges in the Cedarburg area. Our designs incorporate solutions such as proper grading, permeable paving for driveways and walkways, and strategic placement of retaining walls to manage water flow. For soil compaction, we recommend techniques like aeration and select plants that thrive in local conditions, ensuring your landscape is both beautiful and resilient against these issues.

What services do you offer for hardscape construction, like patios or retaining walls?

We provide comprehensive hardscape services, including patio, porch, terrace, walkway, and retaining wall construction or installation. Our process begins with a custom design that integrates these elements seamlessly into your overall landscape plan. As a design-focused firm, we collaborate with trusted contractors to oversee installation, ensuring optimal aesthetic outcomes and durability, whether for residential gardens or larger commercial projects.

Can you handle both landscape design and construction coordination for a project?

Yes, we specialize in full-service landscape design and act as project liaisons to coordinate with contractors. Our services include landscape design, irrigation design, greenscape design, and oversight of construction or installation. By focusing solely on design, we eliminate conflicts of interest and work closely with builders to ensure your vision is realized with attention to detail, from plant selection to final installation.
