Sustainable Landscape Architecture
People
are the primary influence on today’s landscape. Barr’s landscape
architects recognize what people want from the land and—just
as important—how they affect it. Our holistic design
process, which considers such issues as ecology, plant selection,
aesthetics, site programming, and stormwater management, results
in affordable, attractive places for people while providing
wildlife habitat and, in some cases, improved water quality.
At Barr, we work with nature, devising ecologically sound
plans that allow plants to thrive with minimal inputs of chemicals,
fertilizers, and water—benefiting the environment while
reducing maintenance efforts.
We've
used sustainable landscape techniques on large and small sites
in the design of demonstration gardens, forest and wetland
restorations, rainwater gardens, and prairies. We've assisted
corporations, municipalities, developers, and schools in designing,
installing, and maintaining sustainable landscapes that reward
both human and wildlife inhabitants.
If
you're interested in creating a rich living environment with
reduced maintenance needs and increased plant reliability,

- Master plans
