Decorating a Historic Rockford Landmark
Commercial Landscape Design Flowers
This beautiful building not only holds wonderful value for Rockford as a historic landmark, but the Community Foundation itself is a tremendous organization in our community that makes local grants and scholarships possible through generous donors. Our designer worked on this property at previous employment and by chance ran into the office manager at a local event where they reconnected a professional level through LCbW.

The Corner Spot

We partnered with Green Key Landscape Design and the Miracle Mile Rockford to complete the landscape overhaul of the Rock River Blocks frontage beds along the corner of Alpine Road and State Street. The unassuming turf and tired Juniper shrubs were replaced with a low-profile mix of hardy, salt tolerant, colorful perennials such as Catmint, Salvia, and Allium.
Modern Makeover

What does one do with a large backyard area? Entertain and host family and loved ones of course!

Stairway to Beauty

This beautiful river-front home has stunning views. Unfortunately, the only access to it was through the house or via a treacherously worn staircase.
A Private Retreat

Our homeowner wanted an updated landscape throughout the property that included a small paved space to relax. The client also wanted a privacy barrier that consisted of something besides a row of trees.
To accommodate this request, we created a small patio using Belgard Mega Dublin pavers in Cotswold Mist with Weston Universal stone seat walls, also in Cotswold Mist, bordering the patio.
Soothing Sanctuary

This project's goal was to extend the outdoor living space from the deck to the lower yard by installing a paver patio. This large patio space, created from Belgard Lafitt pavers in Danville Beige and trimmed with a soldier course border using Hollandstone pavers in Charcoal, was adorned with Belgard Weston Universal and 3-piece wall stones in Danville Beige accent pillars and seat wall.
Three Season Beauty

Driveway Makeover

The end goal on this specific project was to spruce up an existing driveway. Our customer really wanted to do something unique that would make a statement but wouldn't overpower the surrounding landscape.

To freshen the look of this concrete pad, we created a multi-level patio using Belgard Mega Dublin pavers in Gascony Tan and accented with a Belgard Hollandstone soldier course in Ashbury Haze. Pillars and steps were created from Belgard Weston Universal wall stone in Gascony Tan.
Outdoor Dining Pleasure

The goal of this assisted living facility was to create an interactive and safe space for the residents to enjoy a meal during the beautiful summer months. Handicap access and protection from nearby parking lot traffic were a must.
A Safe & Attractive Place

Safety had become a concern due to rotting and crumbling railroad ties at this business, and the owners were ready for a sleek, updated look. We installed Fond du Lac natural cut wall stone, keeping a similar layout to the preexisting wall.
Refined Paradise

Our goal for this project was to create unity among a mix of hardscape materials and implement one cohesive space that allowed for multiple uses: grilling, entertaining, lounging, seamless passage from multiple entrances, and safe passage for bare feet heading to the pool. The final plan incorporated Unilock's Beacon Hill paver in Bavarian Blend with a Brussels paver soldier course in Buff for the expansive patio space.
Tapestry of Stonework

This terraced landscape was in need of a makeover. Dated flagstone steps were uneven and falling apart, thus making them dangerous to traverse.
Simplistic Yet Sophisticated Berm

The existing berm for this homeowner was in need of a clean and updated look. Our Landscape Designer wanted to soften the shape of the landscaped bed by choosing natural Fon du Lac outcropping stone to complement the dense, yet airy Evergreens and plantings the homeowner originally chose.
Renovated Relaxation Garden

When we first started this project, the homeowners intended to install an in-ground pool. Because the elevation of the grade drastically changed throughout parts of the backyard, a retaining wall was needed around the outer edge of the pool.
Asian Contemporary Oasis

This project was uniquely designed to reflect the cultural background of our customer. Our project manager and landscape designer worked together to create a peaceful retreat of relaxation while incorporating the Asian elements of earth, water, stone, wood and a contrast of textures.
The cedar trellises were custom designed by our team of skilled employees and the solid granite pagoda nestled between the red maple and lush evergreens was custom built by our project manager.
A Neighborly Nook
