Landscape Architecture And Site Planning
Landscape Architecture And Site Planning
Landscape Design Studio specializes in custom residential homes and estates throughout Florida. LDS recognizes all architectural trends and always strives to complement the architectural style and needs of the individual home owner. We excel in hardscape design with an emphasis on pools, fountains, multi-level terraces, arbors/pergolas, trellises, and many other garden features/furnishings.
Our attention to detail is unsurpassed as our designs engage the architecture and surrounding landscape, leaving you with the feeling that your home and garden is in harmony with you. Our design approach is to intuitively react to your specific needs, architecture, and site constraints, in a traditional landscape architectural format.
At Landscape Design Studio we approach commercial development with the same enthusiasm given to residential homes and developments. Our role in commercial design, normally,is more than just meeting the planting requirements. Our clients rely on us to give site plan input concerning vehicular and pedestrian use, paving patterns, street furnishings, trellises, garden structures, and fountains, enhancing the experience of the users. We take into account, the adjacent properties and developments, creating a unified design approach. Again, as in residential design, LDS is focused on people, the space they move through, and the experience that they have while doing so.
A cross over between single family dwellings and commercial development, lies multi-family homes and high-rise development. As with single family homes, the need for private, personal spaces is the foremost part of the design program, even though it's in context of a much larger project. The need for breaking that design problem down into smaller spaces becomes the most important aspect of multi-family design, giving the user amenity spaces that have the same character of a private home estate. This approach to the design problem, starts as you approach the site or the building, you begin to experience the various amenities that the development has to offer, as in putting a swimming pool on a 17th floor, downtown, or in a rural area, and blending it with the natural environment.
Paul, the Principal of LDS, is a Professional Landscape Architect, licensed in the State of Florida. He graduated from the highly accredited School Of Environmental Design at the University of Georgia in 1986. Paul's early career was spent as a young designer, honing his skills at Warren E. McCormick and Associates in Ft. Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. He learned a variety of design philosophies and techniques, working on projects throughout South Florida, from Miami to John's Island. In addition to planting design, Paul specializes in hardscape design, construction detailing, and grading/drainage. After 17 years, Paul joined Michael Sapusek at Intuitive Design Group, in Stuart. Together, he and Michael designed successful projects on both coasts of Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean. However, all good things must come to an end. Upon Michael's retirement in 2020, Paul founded Landscape Design Studio, opening a new chapter in his professional career.
After 34 years with two well-established landscape architectural firms, I founded Landscape Design Studio in 2020. LDS is a landscape architectural design studio that specializes in the production of hardscape, landscape, and irrigation plans for high-end residential, multi-family, and commercial projects. Previous projects have been completed throughout South Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean, providing clients with environmentally sensitive solutions, quality, and design integrity. Whether you require a refurbishment or a new design for your existing or proposed site, LDS would appreciate the opportunity to assist you with your future needs. Our ultimate goal is to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the end result of your project.
