Our Firm

PRINCIPAL & FOUNDER

A keen interest in plants and the outdoors lead Blythe to Cornell University where she graduated in 2005 with a degree in landscape architecture. She began her career in the design/build industry where she learned construction techniques, on the job decision making, and how to get her boots muddy. In 2010 Blythe founded Yost Design as well as Hudson House & Garden, a sister installation company. Together with several cofounders, in 2019 Blythe founded Tilly, an online landscape platform serving clients nationwide. Blythe is a registered landscape architect in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
