JAAP STERK EXTERIORS
‘‘Naturally embedded in the surroundings’’
The garden is becoming an increasingly important extension of the home, and with it, a well-considered garden design. The layout of a garden should complement the character of the house, and vice versa. Jaap Sterk intuitively understands how to achieve this balance. He isn’t a stylist; he works as an architect, seeing the broader picture. His signature lies in creating a harmonious blend of calm and simplicity. Minimalism is his strength, yet strict lines are never dominant. After all, minimalism flourishes through subtle contrasts.
Every creative vision has a source of inspiration. In Jaap’s case, it’s the English landscape garden, with its sweeping sightlines and natural integration into the environment.
A design by Jaap Sterk never stands alone, just as your garden does not exist in isolation. His creations exude a sense of effortless calm, making his garden designs a natural extension of any home. Jaap Sterk is the creative force behind Jaap Sterk Exteriors, a garden design studio driven by vision. For over 40 years, Jaap and his team have been designing and realizing timeless, understated gardens with elegance and without unnecessary ornamentation.
