Landscape Architects & Designers Near Lakewood

“If you are familiar with residential developments known for stacking as many homes as possible onto a small parcel of land... this review is for you. Downsizing landed us in one of those developments. Located at the bottom of a hill with three homes looking directly onto our patio, we had absolutely no privacy. Ken, our landscape designer from Room to Grow, changed our yard from a rectangle piece of grass into a stunning sanctuary of privacy. Ken's resourcefulness proved invaluable as he managed sub-contractors and post-pandemic glitches in availability of materials. He committed to a timeline, and stuck to it. By weaving together several gardens, placing strategic screens which provided the necessary focal points, he was able to design gardens with year-round interest, color, movement and texture throughout. It is beautiful! Room to Grow has proven to be trustworthy, dependable and creative. I have recommended them to our family and friends. Such a stellar business!”

“Shannon Grina, principal of Grina Landscape design, is a supremely talented landscape designer. She designs for her clients, not her portfolio, as she carefully considers how clients want to enjoy their yards, their budget requirements, and the environmental needs of the landscape. She will design a space that is beautiful and sustainable, and, is available for guidance and coaching along the way. I found Shannon to be professional, responsive and easy to work with. I am so happy with my redesigned yard. It brings me so much pleasure. I highly recommend Shannon if you want to have a beautiful, usable yard.”

“After researching local landscape designers, we hired Studio 342 to develop a landscape design for our newly constructed home. We were incredibly happy with the results. As ambitious do-it-yourselfers with lots of energy and ideas, we had absolutely no idea of how to bring all those ideas together into a cohesive, contemporary design that would fit our lifestyle and dreams for the perfect outdoor space. After interviewing a few landscape designers, we met with and hired Studio 342 to develop a base plan, master design plan, planting plan and construction details that provided all of the information we needed to implement the project ourselves. The project was ambitious, including: re-grading plan for the front and side yard to allow for installation of grasspave2 to create a hidden driveway and parking area for our 28’ Airstream trailer; raised garden and picnic table area; an outdoor dining area; an outdoor gas fire pit area; an outdoor kitchen design for the existing patio; a full lighting plan; a new path system to tie it all together; integration of concrete and steel elements to meet our design aesthetic; and colorful and low maintenance plants. It’s now a year later and we’ve complete the majority of the project. We love our outdoor space and we could not be any happier with the overall design. Studio 342 did an amazing job of listening and creating a final design that was perfectly aligned with our goals and tastes. They were reliable on their budget and timeline. They produced clear, detailed designs that were easy to follow and implement. And, they provided outstanding support whenever we needed extra help along the way.”
