After 25 years in graphic design and creative direction, Noreen Leahey brings her eye for composition, color, texture, and storytelling to a new canvas: the landscape.

Noreen’s creative perspective has always been shaped by curiosity — about people, culture, beauty, and what makes a space feel uniquely its own. Her love of nature and the outdoors has been woven into that perspective. Garden and landscape design brings these passions together in a way that feels both natural and entirely new.

Plot Twist creates distinctive outdoor spaces that feel personal, vibrant, and unexpected. Every project begins with listening — understanding how you live, what you love, what inspires you, and how you want to experience your space. From there, the vision takes shape — through thoughtful planning, beautiful planting, unexpected combinations, and all the details that make a space feel distinctly, delightfully yours.

Her approach is thoughtful but never predictable. Noreen is inspired by spaces that feel discovered rather than simply designed—lush, layered, and immersive. A secluded corner that feels like a secret garden. A porch that becomes your favorite room. A backyard that invites you to disconnect, linger, and stay awhile.
