About us.

Roland started his interest in floras as a teen working at local nurseries. Following his love for design in natural landscapes, he pursued his degree in Landscape Architecture at Cal poly. Starting Funk Landscape at 28 years old, he originally hand crafted plans and executed his own design. Working as a designer and constructor he has developed an extensive knowledge base and view point from both perspectives of initial design and practical install that’s built to last. Years in, he slowly transitioned predominantly into the construction world and works hand in hand with local landscape architects.

As a native of the Bay Area, born & raised he has cultivated an intimate understanding of our region's unique ecosystem, climate, and flora. We take great care in selecting the finest materials and plants for our projects, drawing upon our extensive network of local resources and wholesalers to source the highest quality products. From native plants that flourish in our Mediterranean climate to sustainable hardscape materials, we prioritize both beauty and environmental stewardship in every aspect of our work.

Our dedication to excellence extends beyond our craftsmanship to the relationships we build with our clients. We understand that each project is a collaboration, and we strive to exceed your expectations at every step of the journey. From the initial consultation to the final installation, we are committed to providing personalized attention, clear communication, and unparalleled professionalism.
