After nearly 45 years of designing and constructing custom homes and buildings throughout Maine, Knickerbocker Group in Boothbay has expanded its offerings to include landscape architecture. The practice will seamlessly integrate with the firm’s existing architecture and interior teams, alongside property management; allowing each to serve and bolster the existing services.

Tapped to lead this expansion is licensed landscape architect Kerry Lewis. Kerry joins Knickerbocker Group after two decades of running her own successful practice as well as years of experience with firms in Boston, New York and San Francisco. For Kerry, collaboration is a key tenet. “Working together with architects and designers the landscape architecture team will elevate every project from the initial site consult with potential clients, through design and construction, and continuing with our property management services,” Lewis says.

“Having Kerry join our team was a natural fit – her expertise, passion and commitment to Maine are highly synergistic with our core values. She cares deeply about improving biodiversity, educating our clients and colleagues, and protecting our climate” says, Danielle Betts, president of Knickerbocker Group.

For clients, having a landscape architecture practice will offer a streamlined approach along with the opportunity to create beautiful, sustainable, stable environments that fortify a site’s natural beauty. The landscape architect team also works with our interior design practice to select outdoor furniture and accessories that complement the thoughtful selections inside a home.

Knickerbocker Group’s landscape architecture practice will offer master planning, designs to accompany Knickerbocker Group projects, as well as projects that require landscape design only, along with outside vendor collaborations.
