Garden Design
Planning and design are essential factors in making a landscape look beautiful. You can create themed gardens, such as Japanese or Zen gardens, water gardens replete with a stream, pond or waterfall, or a Xeriscaped garden where drought-tolerant plants and rocks are grouped together to conserve energy and water. The planning will cover these needs to create a tailored garden that you can enjoy for years to come. As you engage with our design consultants, we can help you get familiar with the basic garden design techniques and offer you inspirational ideas for your desired garden setup.
Patio Design
A patio, whether open, semi-roofed or covered, is one element of landscape design. Since the patio serves different functions, it needs to be given careful consideration. The available space that you have can be maximized by creating a carefully planned patio design. The location, intended use, capacity, type, and material of the patio should be also considered.
Landscape Designer
Getting the right landscape designer is important to help property owners get the most out of their landscapes. Our landscape designers are prepared to handle a wide range of design projects and dedicated to creating and ensuring quality garden design. We effectively apply the use of elements (space size, color, harmony) and practical considerations such as drainage, lighting, excavation, and all other aspects of designing a sustainable landscape.
Landscape Architect
When planning a new landscape installation project, you need to get a professional landscape architect. Landscape architects work with their hands, possess a creative vision as well as appreciate the beauty of nature. Certified landscape architects understand proper building codes and can come up with a detailed landscape design plan covering material specifications and design ideas that will work within your budget.
