Landscape Architecture

“The public meetings with neighbors and constituents were always professional and well put together.  It is a pleasure to recommend The Berkshire Design Group, and I think your project would benefit from their involvement.”

PUBLIC CLIENT

Landscape Architecture integrates human activities and development with natural and urban environments. We are passionate about the difference thoughtful site planning and site design, using the best design practices available, can make in the built and natural environments and in the lives of people.

Developing either the natural or built environment requires a detailed knowledge of the legal, technical, environmental and regulatory constraints that impact design. Creating spaces that delight the people who inhabit them requires creativity. The landscape architects at Berkshire Design possess both the knowledge and creativity, and have the ability to develop sustainable design solutions that successfully address the complex physical, social and ecological issues inherent in a place.
