**★★★★★ — laforeman, Feb. 2016**

> We were not a big job for Doug, however when someone comes to my home for the first time, they comment on how beautiful my landscaping is! He is a lovely and talented man.

**★★★★★ — SemelSnow Interior Design, Inc., April 2013**

> One of the most creative and thoughtful landscape architects in the business.  We have had the pleasure of working side-by-side many times on both local and out-of-state projects.  Hoerr Schaudt always brings a unique and surprising approach to what they do.

## Selected projects

- [Modern Lakefront](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-lakefront-pj-vj~1454119)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: Our design for this three-acre site overlooking Lake Michigan gradually moves the strikingly contemporary residence, by architect Peter Gluck, from a suburban condition upon arrival to a more natural setting as it approaches the water. An ornamental matrix of grasses and perennials transitions to a bluff palette at the back, knitting the house into its larger context; the angular, warped planes of the architecture are planted with grasses and ground cover to further fuse house and landscape. The…
- [Formal Garden](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/formal-garden-pj-vj~1104572)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: Gracious and expansive, the site for this Lake Forest residence, designed by Hoerr Schaudt Landscape Architects, allows for a wide variety of experiences within a setting that seamlessly unifies formal and naturalistic garden styles. The landscape was designed more for enriching the day-to-day activities of family and friends than as a ‘show’ garden, and it balances intimate garden rooms with wide open spaces and long views.
- [Midwestern Estate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/midwestern-estate-pj-vj~1560685)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 10
  - Description: Drawing on the strong Midwestern characteristics of this property, we designed an estate landscape that prioritizes privacy, natural beauty and water. Though unified and consistent in its use of materials and details, the property provides a wide variety of outdoor experiences and entertainment possibilities including an orchard, vegetable garden, dining area, pool, shade garden and waterfall. Taking a cue from English country gardens, the property includes a rough-mown natural meadow to relax t…
- [Traditional Lakefront](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-lakefront-pj-vj~1104438)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: To make this new beachfront home suitable for outdoor entertaining on a large scale, Hoerr Schaudt designed multi-level terraces that take full advantage of the spectacular lake view and direct access to the private beach. Screened from the street by stone walls and a pergola, this secluded party space offers every possible amenity, including a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, large area for alfresco dining, sport court, music, and night lighting.
- [Northern Michigan Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/northern-michigan-residence-pj-vj~525512)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: Our plan for this expansive north Michigan summer house knits together two very different sensibilities: the restrained aesthetic of Asian design, and the wild abundance of the state’s native landscape. Balancing control and chaos, we shaped multiple quiet zones from which to enjoy the colorful riot of Michigan’s natural environs, interspersing reflecting pools and fountains that draw a connecting thread of serenity through the entire experience
- [Contemporary Courtyard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-courtyard-pj-vj~1560589)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: Hidden behind the facade of this elegant home by Booth Hansen is a contemporary landscape that fits within the character of the area and gives the homeowners a secluded space for outdoor recreation, entertaining, and repose. The architecture and landscape were developed together to reinforce interior vistas and establish a series of rooms (inside and out) throughout the site. Generous green roofs and terraces expand this experience of the landscape beyond the first floor of the home, and invest…
- [Urban Garden](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/urban-garden-pj-vj~1089759)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
- [Modern Courtyard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-courtyard-pj-vj~1104300)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: A contemporary aesthetic combined with areas for various family activities makes this urban residence suitable for both children and adults. A sport court allows ample space for competitive play, while a water wall within the secluded rear courtyard buffers city noise and invites conversation. Fire pit extends usage of area through early spring and fall. Pit is poured-in-place concrete stained black. Bluestone terrace.
