Home of 9bark Design Landscape Architecture

9bark DESIGN, established in 2004, is a small landscape architecture firm located in Gallatin Gateway, Montana. It is our philosophy to give each client individualized attention, while building partnerships with other design team members, and creating thoughtful, functional, sustainable and livable outdoor spaces.

The strength of the firm comes from the varied project experience of the principal in the years prior to establishing 9bark, including; Development Planning; Campus Planning and Design; Transportation, Park, Recreation and Trails Design; Institutional and Corporate Design; Commercial Development; Residential Design; and Construction Implementation and Administration. Working as a team member on such large scale projects established a solid base of experience in both process and design.
