About us
My wife, Lois and I have lived in Santa Clara Valley all of our lives and we love it here. With each season we’re more thankful that we can call this home. We love the mild climate and accessibility to amazing scenery and world renowned points of interest around the Bay Area. Only in California can such variety be found! I’ve always enjoyed science, nature and art. At 13, I surfed, developed an interest in zoology, geology, the art of bonsai and designed and built the first of many ponds in my family’s back yard. After serving in the Air Force, I headed back to school studying geology while developing an R&D department at a local company. I also raced motocross throughout the 70′s and still have a few trophies collecting dust to prove it! It was late in that decade that I discovered Landscape Architecture – a profession that combined all of my passions – art, nature and the challenge of problem solving. Looking back, it seems odd that I hadn’t discovered it earlier having intuitively drawn plans for my ponds many years earlier. Never-the-less it was a transformational awakening in my life! I went back to West Valley College, picked up a few scholarships, was accepted at Cal Poly SLO, UC Berkeley and UC Davis where I attended. At Davis I was awarded an ASLA National Certificate of Honor and graduated with a BS in Landscape Architecture. I immediately began work at a mid-sized Landscape Architectural firm in Palo Alto where I quickly became the senior designer and a licensed Landscape Architect. I began DuBridge Design in 1989 and with over 25 years in the profession I still have a passion for what I do – making your outdoor space your favorite place to be.

Steve provided drawings with two distinct options. The one I chose, incorporated a brick walkway and a sculpted poured concrete walkway. Even before the planting was completed, my neighbors began complimenting me on the new look.
When it was time for the plants, Steve sent me a list of plants so I could select the ones that I liked. He used many of the existing plants and incorporated new ones. He asked about my color preferences.
I continue toget compliments about the landscaping. I notice that people walking their dogs often stop to look at the plantings.
I am very happy with the way my front yard looks now. The design is creative, and unique. The material blend well with the house?s exterior to provide a cohesive setting.
