About
A Small Green Space is a full-service urban landscape design/build/maintenance firm. We have been creating urban outdoor “living” rooms since 2009.
The owner, Emma Lam, is both a garden designer and a horticulturist. With a background in theatre and childhood homes in both England and New England, Emma brings a dramatic flare to the lush, outdoor living spaces she creates.
Emma’s training includes KLC School of Designs’ Garden Design course and a Certificate of Horticulture from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
No Space is too small to be green.
