Providing true landscape architecture
While landscape architecture has a venerable history, in modern times, it’s often misunderstood.
The discipline of landscape architecture came from adapting private gardening to a public scale. The first landscape architect was probably Vitruvius, whose treatises on designing Roman causeways, markets and public squares are still consulted today.
Today, landscape architects have to balance a variety of concerns to deliver excellent work for residential, corporate and nonprofit clients, like schools. Landscape architects must consider:
- Budget
- Hydrology
- Sustainability
- Curb appeal
- Timeline and schedule
- Topography
Not all landscape architecture companies are created equal
While many landscape designers may call themselves landscape architects, true landscape architecture is state licensed and requires multiple certifications. If you’re considering hiring a landscape architect, please consider the experienced, licensed professionals at Upgrade Landscaping. We’ve been serving Atlanta families for over two decades. A family-owned business ourselves, we’re intimately familiar with what it takes for our landscape architecture project to succeed.
