Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers
About Us
Our Story
Our name Walden Design was inspired by Henry David Thoreau and his book Walden. Thoreau wrote Walden as an account of two years he lived in the woods near Concord, Massachusetts on Walden Pond. There be built his own cabin, raised his own food to live simply. He wanted to be free from the distractions of ordinary life. At Walden Pond, he observed nature and lived in harmony with his environment around him. As a landscape designer, my design philosophy is similar to Thoreau’s, we observe nature to get our inspiration for our designs. Our designs are a visual cohesive blend of nature, clients lifestyles, nature and the environment around.
Owners Background
My love of landscaping began when I was young. In my middle school autobiography, wrote “At 25 I would like to get a degree as a landscape engineer. I would like to own my own business...” I guess my love of landscaping started when I was young. When I was young I use my parent's lawn tractor and trailer to do various landscape projects around the yard. I would haul around topsoil, mulch, plants,and rocks and add new planting beds, retaining walls, ponds,and waterfalls. My first job, when I turned 16, was at a nursery, where I also met my future wife, and I have been in the green industry ever since. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to make it a career and attend Michigan State’s Landscape Design, Construction, and Management program. I really enjoyed school and learning more in-depth about plants, design and other landscaping.
