Landscape Architecture
At Integrated Design Studio, our Landscape Architecture projects range in scale and scope from garden design, to residential master planning, to large scale planning for residential, resort, and commercial developments. At any scale, we provide specialized focus attention to both the aesthetics and livability of the built environment.
We strive to create spaces that are both functional beautiful. Homeowners looking for a facelift for their existing yards find our thoughtful, personal touch helps bring their custom vision to life. Our landscape architecture work typically consists of conceptual design sketches, illustrative renderings, and related planning documents. For larger scale residential/commercial developments, see Community Planning.
