What Does an Exterior and Landscape Design Advisor Do?

In Miami, outdoor spaces are lived in all year. An exterior and landscape advisor brings the interior designer's eye to the outside of the property, so architecture, landscape and interiors tell one cohesive story.

Rather than replacing your architect or landscape architect, Jessica acts as a design advisor, guiding selections and protecting the overall vision.

Why Indoor-Outdoor Cohesion Matters in Miami

Floor-to-ceiling glass, sliding walls and bay or ocean views mean your outdoor spaces are always part of the interior. When flooring, stone, colors and lighting carry seamlessly from living room to terrace, the home feels larger, calmer and more luxurious.

Cohesive exterior design also adds curb appeal and long-term property value.

Designing for South Florida Conditions

Miami's climate is beautiful and demanding. Every recommendation considers:

  • Intense UV exposure and fade-resistant materials

  • Humidity, salt air and corrosion-resistant hardware

  • Hurricane-rated openings and secure outdoor furniture

  • Shade, airflow and cooling strategies

  • Native and drought-tolerant planting

How the Advisory Process Works

  1. Vision: Outdoor goals are defined during your interior design consultation.

  2. Coordinate: Jessica collaborates with your architect, landscape architect and builder.

  3. Design: Materials, lighting and furniture are aligned with the interior concept.

  4. Visualize: Outdoor spaces can be shown in hi-res 3D renderings.

  5. Deliver: Selections are specified, procured and installed.
