FR Review:
Kari Katzander’s 2004 Golden Trowel award only reinforces the client kudos she’s been receiving for years. Offering brilliance on a budget, Mingo Design’s Kari and Andrew Katzander (and their small team) design, install and maintain a variety of gardens and grounds throughout the New York area. The “trustworthy” Katzander couple strives to “bring the outside in and the inside out” in their designs. Sources mention their commitment to designing with four seasons of interest and the terrific use of color.
Kari grew up working for her father’s contracting company, restoring farms and farmhouses. After a confident fifteen-year run owning her own landscape maintenance and design company on Fishers Island, she brought her considerable practical construction and installation knowledge to the position of creative director at Mingo Design. Andrew’s design and contracting resume includes stints at The New York Botanical Garden and the Pratt Institute. Costs are upper-end.
Representative Client Comments:
“Kari was able to take our firm’s outside space and turn it into an extremely inviting environment for our clients to enjoy.” “Whether it be the soothing sound of the water from the fountain stones, the brightly painted brick walls or the creative use of plants in an extremely low-maintenance garden, she continually surpassed our expectations.” “Kari cared passionately about the design both in terms of the large concepts and the small details that make the project sing.”
