About NWDS

Creating Spaces That Rejuvenate

It is our goal at NWDS to provide design that is thoughtfully catered to the client and the property. Our process culminates at the intersection of the existing site conditions, creative spaces, and how the user will interact with the site.

We listen to our clients’ vision to create a cohesive and functional space, while accounting for the requirements of the natural environment that is unique to the property. Our team works diligently to employ sustainable design alternatives that add value for our clients while promoting analytical planning and practical use of the space. Our team is experienced in all areas of landscape architecture design and planning from large-scale land-use studies to intricate design details.

Site Design & Landscape Architectural Design

The process of planning, conceptualizing and arranging components of a design program on a property. Typically concerned with overall functionality of the space, site design explores existing conditions, circulation, and how the user will interact with the program features.

Planning

Similar to site design, planning involves the arrangement of uses and components on a property, but on a much larger scale. Planning takes into account zoning requirements, utility use and access, street circulation, and connection to adjacent land uses and overall functionality.

Grading & Drainage Plans
The detailed design of water movement and management, catered to the requirements of the site and the use of the property.
Parks & Recreation
The conceptualization and design of outdoor spaces intended to provide opportunities for outdoor play and recreation, both active and passive.
Applications & Permitting

Whether your project requires a Preliminary Plat or a simple Lakeshore Construction Permit, our team can help guide you through the process.

Multi-use Design

The art of combining three or more uses within one property to promote diversity and responsible density. Typically in coordination with an architect, multi-use design combines residential, commercial, transportation, entertainment, public, and cultural uses into one cohesive design.

Planting Plans

Let us help you put the finishing touches on your design by selecting beautiful and functional plant material that accents your property. We will take into account the preferred colors, maintenance, and water requirements and provide a landscape that can be enjoyed for years to come.
