Landscape architecture encompasses all designed changes to the outdoor environment. icensed landscape architects are professionally trained to design elements outside of buildings including gardens, recreational facilities, terraces, walls, steps, fountains, pools and pergolas, and many other structural elements. Many different types and scales of projects fall within this broad view of landscape architecture and we adapt our process to respond to the clients’ needs.  What follows is an outline of our full-service approach to landscape architecture.  Many times an abbreviated version of this process is all that is required, but if you are starting from the beginning this may be the process of design you follow with Woodburn and Company. 

Victoria Martel earned her Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she graduated with honors and received the American Society of Landscape Architects Merit Award for excellence in the study of Landscape Architecture.

While persuing her degree, Vicky worked in the field at two small design-build firms. There she gained valuable first-hand experience in landscape installation and fine gardening. As a result of spending summers working in beautiful coastal gardens, Vicky is very knowledgeable in both construction practices and plant care and selection.

Vicky joined Woodburn & Company in 2008. She designs and manages projects, along with being Robbi’s right-hand and head AutoCAD tutor.

Vicky lives in Maine with her husband Kevin. She enjoys working in her garden, cooking and spending time on the water.
