At the start of a project, it’s important for a landscape architect to ask and answer the questions: what is the purpose of this space and what should it reflect? Landscape architecture — the art, planning, design, management, preservation and rehabilitation of land and the design of that land — lays the foundation for the project and helps characterize the project’s identity. BL Companies’ landscape architecture professionals work with clients to shape their visions of a project site to unveil its best possible uses.

BL Companies provides landscape architecture services to private and public sector clients. We specialize in:

  • Public spaces & courtyards
  • Streetscape enhancements
  • Site analysis and master planning
  • Educational facilities
  • Corporate development
  • Residential communities
  • Irrigation design

  • Athletic field design
  • Sustainable design strategies

The Landscape Architecture Team at BL Companies uses creative design solutions to guide change. A detailed design process creates the project’s image and character and helps transform the project’s visions into reality. Our expertise ranges from the creation of public parks and parkways to site planning for corporate office buildings, from the design of residential communities to the design of civil infrastructure and the management of recreation areas. We tailor our creative development strategies and design solutions to each client’s project, vision, goals and budget. This is vital to maintaining the integrity of the past while moving into the future.

“The true proportions in this world are the views to the stars and the views down to the surface of the earth. Grass and vegetation in the city should grow on all horizontal spaces. I’ve worked a great deal with grass roofs, putting soil on top and having things grow, but there is something strange in this, more than ecological. It is a religious act to have soil on your roof and trees growing on top of you.”
— Friedensreich Regentag Dunkelbunt Hundertwasser, 20th Century painter and sculptor. He is more widely known for his architectural designs which incorporate natural landscape features and use of irregular forms in building design.
