Tapestry Landscape Architecture

What Tapestry Landscape Architecture does

Tapestry Landscape Architecture is a licensed landscape architecture firm founded in 1997 and headquartered in Haskell, New Jersey. The firm operates under the umbrella of Scenic Landscaping LLC alongside two affiliated companies — Scenic Landscaping (construction/installation) and Tranquility Pools (pool design and construction) — and serves residential, commercial, and public-sector clients across the tri-state area spanning New Jersey, New York, and Westchester County. Its leadership bench is anchored by founder Mitch Knapp (45+ years industry experience) and partner Richard Zimmer (23+ years, Rutgers-educated, NJ- and NY-licensed), supported by senior designer Matt Jones (20+ years) and additional associate and junior design staff.

The firm's service offering spans four primary lines: residential master planning and estate design, garden-level landscape design for high-end residential projects, commercial and public space design, and pool-scape design delivered in coordination with sister firm Tranquility Pools. Technical production is anchored in standard professional design tooling — AutoCAD for 2D drafting, SketchUp for 3D modelling, and Lumion for visualisation — rather than proprietary platforms, and the firm's value proposition rests on licensed, senior-led design judgement and an integrated design-build delivery model across the sister-company ecosystem. Industry positioning is reinforced by more than 20 award recognitions over the past two years across NJNLA, NJLCA, APSP, and NESPA competitions, signalling competitive standing in the premium residential segment of the regional market.

The business model is project-based professional services revenue: clients engage the firm on a per-project fee basis with pricing scaled to scope, complexity, and site acreage, rather than on a retainer or recurring SaaS-style contract. Revenue is generated from a mix of high-end residential commissions (the primary segment, including master planning and estate-scale work), commercial and public space commissions, and pool/aquatic landscape work delivered jointly with Tranquility Pools. As a privately held firm with no disclosed funding events, no M&A activity, and headcount of 11-50 staff, the company operates as a stable boutique competitor in a regulated, license-gated design market where dual-state NJ/NY licensure is a structural barrier to new entrants.
