Karen Slaught

Owner and founder of LivingColor Landscapes

If there is one place I would rather be, it’s outside.  Being one of five kids,my mother often insisted this is where ‘to play.’  In fact, I excelled at it.  My father a successful design-build general contractor and my mother a gifted floral designer shaped my passion for combining plants and structures.  Forts and mini landscapes for my trolls dolls were stepping stones for growing my award winning company, LivingColor Landscapes.   After 29 years of creating commercial and residential landscapes throughout California, I can honestly say it is truly my heart felt passion.  It would be my honor and pleasure to help you design and construct the outdoor living space that brings excitement, delight and peace to share with family and friends.
