Our Story

Design Works began in 2006 with one belief that felt bigger than the tools in our hands, the idea that people deserve to feel connected to the land around them. What started as a small crew with big dreams slowly became something steadier and stronger, built through cold mornings, long seasons, and a level of craftsmanship that refused to bend.

Every stone set in place, every lawn brought back to life, every property transformed was another chapter in a story written with patience and pride. Over the years, our work has shaped us as much as we have shaped the landscapes.

That steady rise created a company trusted by homeowners and facility managers alike across Southern New Hampshire and Northern Massachusetts. Design Works stands where it does today because our team has never stopped showing up, never stopped caring, and never stopped believing that the right hands can turn any space into something meaningful.

We’re so glad you asked! Yes. Our ideas go well beyond simply placing a pool in a back yard. It is so important to consider your whole program before installing a pool and to have a very logical and detailed plan. We consider pool size, placement and orientation, sun/shade, hardscaping, grading, plantings, maximizing the uses of spaces, dining and entertaining opportunities, site work costs, materials costs, aesthetics and function, property setbacks and requirements, and so much more.

We work with reputable pool companies and our reliable network of electricians, plumbers, etc. We are happy to provide the services of sitework, hardscaping, landscaping, irrigation, lawn, etc. ourselves. Our landscape architects can even work on your behalf if any permitting is required for pool plan approval.
