Mark transformed our 50-year old brick backyard and aging Cape Cod-ish streetscape to a sleek, modern home. Our backyard now shows off the view from a pool deck that looks exactly like our vacation in Mykonos.

Mark & his team at Mark Scott & Associates did a phenomenal job on our front and backyard. In the front, we just had dirt and at the end the entrance is so warm & inviting. In the back, we went from an ugly ditch that had no use to a beautiful rose garden and sitting area. Now I can sit outside with all the butterflies and hummingbirds and enjoy the beauty...it's just what I always wanted. I highly recommend Mark...he is friendly and PATIENT and very creative!
Mark transformed our yard and created a beautiful place for us to enjoy. We got exactly what we wanted and we LOVE the results (Before & After)
Mark Scott is the best landscape and hard scape architect that I have ever worked with in my 38 year career of real estate development. Mark and his team are outstanding and his vision, imagination, and follow through was very professional and broadened my scope of what is possible in creating a masterful award winning home here in Newport Coast. I can highly recommend him to anyone who wants to achieve an incredible result in a new home or a remodeled home project
