High quality professional commercial landscaping is comprised one-part of design aesthetic and one-part functionality. Commercial spaces have practical applications or several jobs that they must fulfill to meet the needs of the business owner. And a professional landscape architect will marry those two important aspects into a visually appealing and sustainable scheme.
The design of any commercial landscape should first compliment and seamlessly integrate with the overall flow and structure of the building. It should invite people to enter, and convey the purpose, culture and overall brand of the business. This can include color themes that embrace the logo and corporate identity of the business, or other symbolic elements such as regional perennials, or formal groomed hedges and shrubs.
The front landscape design should naturally invite both customers and employees into the space and convey the core cultural messages of strength, or unity, tranquility or sustainability. Conventional, conservative or transitional design themes may be applied, or all three in different areas that serve unique purposes.
For example, the areas designated for meetings should be strategically designed to invigorate the mind, relax the body and inspire imagination and creativity. This can include employee lounges, boardrooms that look out into green spaces, and reception areas.
Stonework and paving paths also provide functionality by directing the flow of foot traffic in an organized fashion into the building, and to the front security or reception area. These subtle landscape design elements are incorporated to make the entrance to the building appealing to all the senses, including visual and audio (water features) messaging.
