landscape designer?

Hi, we are looking for a modern landscape designer/architect to design the garden of our (nearly) minimalist house. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Luca-

Where are you located?  I would suggest you use someone local that is familar with native species, so it's important to know what general region you're in.

Right, I guess I need to be a little more specific. We live in the Cayman Islands. We would like to play with different species of tropical bamboos and perhaps some native grasses. Also, a small palette of materials such as gravel, ipe and white walls to create a low maintenance, architectural garden.

Luca-

The Cayman Islands- Boy, do I envy you as we are going through this extreme cold spell in Minnesota.  Sorry, don't know of any local landscape architects in your area.  But I might suggest that you find a local architect that does modern work and ask him/her who they like to work with for landscapes.

I discovered this landscape design company awhile back. They are out of the UK, but I love their minimal design.  Check it out at least for inspiration!
