We engaged Kihara Landscapes to landscape our new house in a Japanese inspired native garden with a private Zen garden for our bedroom courtyard. We are absolute delighted with the result. Moto, Bridget and their team are easy to deal with, responsive to our needs, punctual, efficient, creative and respectful. The experience was most enjoyable and Moto is always happy to discuss our requirements and expectations. We highly recommend Kihara to any prospective clients.

Absolute fantastic experience from start to finish, very professional, considering, and practical. I've always wanted a traditional Japanese garden and Kihara did an amazing job to make my dreams come true. Now I can enjoy the autumn maples at home instead of flying to Kyoto!
Thank you Moto, Bridget and Kihara team, you guys are the best!

Team at Kihara are truly fantastic. From the design to the workmanship, absolutely nothing to complain about. Now my backyard has transformed to a small modern Japanese garden which we really love.
Highly recommend Moto and his boys skills, Hiroshi’s design and Bridget’s communication.
If you want a refine, mixture of modern and traditional garden, please give these guys a call. You will be amazed
Ps. The boys always clean up after themselves.

We engaged Kihara Landscapes though word of mouth and the lovely work they had achieved with our friends. We have always loved the tranquility associated with Japanese gardens and Kihara Landscapes hit the mark. They make it look simple, less is more approach, and they do it very well. We are very happy with how they work and what they achieved. The low maintenance gardens we were exactly what we were looking for.

I just want to thank Moto, Hiroshi and everyone associated with Kihara Landscapes. I moved into my new apartment and they turned my muddy garden into an oasis of tranquility and peace. I can be proud to have people over or just look outside and feel like I'm on a permanent holiday. Nothing was too much, communication was constant and total trust was there in what was told to me. I would highly recommend Kihara Landscapes.

I highly recommend Moto and his crew at Kihara for their landscaping skills, their attention to detail, their work ethic and friendliness and for just being really great guys. They are a joy to work with and will do their best to deliver beautiful gardens. We have used Kihara for 3 different projects and will use them again without hesitation. They are skilled trades people and love their job and it shows in what they deliver.
