The term landscape architecture might conjure thoughts of gardening or planting designs, but the discipline encompasses much more.
Landscape architecture practices the art, planning, design, preservation, and management of landscapes and the built environment surrounding them.
Like the growth of a plant, good landscape design extends itself into the built and natural environment around it – forming a holistic, aesthetic impression on users. Even if you are just thinking about a landscape project, we can provide site analysis, feasibility studies, and conceptual planning to help you decide the best solutions that fit your budget and facility. Specializations within the landscape architectural practice address long term care and development of a landscape, including soil conservation, stormwater management, urban design, parks, and other facets of public infrastructure.
Larson Design Group’s landscape architecture staff utilizes their expertise to design projects that celebrate form and function, sustainability, and the aesthetic value of each environment. We start out by helping translate our client’s goals by creating a plan that visualizes the project in clear definition. We also create sketches, plans, or 3D representations that can help a client’s goals be presented for comments when a project involves the public. We believe good landscape architecture should focus on the needs and well-being of the end user to craft seamless landscapes that create lasting impressions.
