- A revolution
has been taking place in Garden Design which has been called the
"New American Landscape", a movement that is both an ideology as
well as a holistic application of design principles. This new concept
rejects the status quo, the idea that a garden is synonymous with high
maintenance involving large expanses of manicured lawns, clipped
hedges, and a rigid arrangement of plants. It also rejects the desire
to "dominate nature" but instead choosing to reflect the more contemporary
attitude of conserving the natural environment. It favors integrating
our homes and offices into the drama of our changing environment
while bringing nature more fully into our lives.
At Landesign we
have embraced the notion of low maintenance planting schemes that
afford depth, richness, and a diverse pattern of color and texture
over the entire year. The end result is a lush combination of ornamental
grasses, perennials, evergreens and other species into a visual
mosaic of plant communities.
- Landesign
is committed to a sensitive application of design and engineering
as it relates to Garden Design. We understand how to combine site
planning and landscape construction in order to provide our clients
with high quality work by professionals in Landscape Architecture.
This knowledge of design and materials has afforded us the opportunity
to provide unique solutions to the challenges of residential and
commercial projects.
- Landesign
considers the designed garden as a necessary element to the complete
home and office. Our staff operates on the premise that outdoor
living spaces should be expertly planned and created with a combination
of various elements of plantings, soil, natural stone, water,
wood, masonry, and metal. We strive to create outdoor living spaces
that are in harmony with the natural surroundings while actualizing
your vision and dreams for your property.
