ClearSpace Planning helps people move from scattered ideas and uncertain next steps to a clear visual direction they can use with family, contractors, partners, or stakeholders.
This portfolio includes real client collaborations, personal projects, and planning studies. Each example shows how ClearSpace brings structure to a space before major decisions, spending, or construction begin.
Recent Client Projects
Japanese Garden Window Retreat
A focused garden-planning concept created to transform a small, visible area near the home into a calm, low-maintenance Japanese-inspired retreat. The direction prioritized hardy planting, simple natural materials, and a composition that could feel intentional from both the yard and the window view.
What it demonstrates:
Small-area landscape planning, low-maintenance plant direction, visual balance, and creating a peaceful destination without overbuilding the space.
Front Yard Concept
A budget-conscious front-yard planning concept created to give the Jenkins household a clear direction before HOA approval, contractor bids, or material purchases. The plan focused on a cleaner, more intentional entry with a straight paver path, simple full-sun planting, rock-based beds, and most of the existing lawn preserved.
What it demonstrates:
HOA-ready visual planning, curb-appeal improvement, budget-aware prioritization, restrained planting design, and clear contractor bid guidance.
Outdoor Living Master Plan
A long-range backyard planning project developed to help transform a large, loosely organized yard into a connected garden retreat. The plan brought together habitat planting, informal paths, a stronger fire-pit gathering area, an existing pergola retreat, future soaking-pool possibilities, and protected space for a possible house extension.
What it demonstrates:
Phased outdoor planning, budget-aware prioritization, long-term vision, and organizing a large multi-use property into connected zones.
Front & Backyard Uplift
A courtesy visual planning showcase created to help refine an already personal, lived-in home and garden. Rather than recommending a costly redesign, ClearSpace focused on cleanup, organization, clearer pathways, refreshed pavers, simplified planting, and better use of the existing front and backyard spaces.
What it demonstrates:
Property-wide visual review, garden and patio organization, cleanup prioritization, and preserving personality while improving flow and usability.
Learning Space Concept
Atlas Montessori High School approached ClearSpace Planning to explore how a smaller footprint could support flexible learning, collaboration, and community. The concept translated early ideas into a clear visual direction that could be shared with stakeholders and investors.
What it demonstrates:
Multi-use space planning, layout clarity, and translating an early vision into a structured concept.
What These Examples Show
Each project demonstrates one or more of the following:
- Layout direction
- Visual improvement strategy
- Space planning and circulation
- Before-and-after thinking
- Budget-aware project prioritization
- Clearer contractor, partner, or family conversations before work begins
ClearSpace is not about decoration for its own sake.
It is about helping people make better decisions before they commit time, money, and energy.
Planning Concepts and Design Studies

What it demonstrates:
Pre-bid planning, material direction, visual balance, and decision-making before installation.
Front Entry Upgrade
A focused entry-area concept showing how a small zone can feel more intentional, welcoming, and visually complete with better planning.
What it demonstrates:
Single-zone planning, proportion, and creating a stronger first impression at the point of arrival.

A room layout and styling study designed to improve comfort, visual coherence, and everyday function.
