Collingwood Landscape Design Architects*

Our landscape architects* design for Collingwood’s distinctive landscapes and the seasonal nature of many of its residences. This includes curating elegant gardens that will flourish and delight, even with inconsistent watering and maintenance. And because landscaping projects may involve submitting plans and securing approvals from the municipality and environmental consultants, at Madison Taylor Design, we get this process started immediately after we have client approval on the design. In this way, we make sure that all the required paperwork related to landscaping has been taken care of before the completion of building construction. Our Collingwood clients, then, enjoy a seamless transition from construction to landscaping, and can look forward to turning the key on their new home, chalet, or cottage without any undue delay.

We make the finer details our business. Whether it’s ensuring that a driveway is a suitable size to accommodate anticipated gatherings or making sure that a transition from indoors to outdoors is a smooth and harmonious one, it’s our purview to anticipate the small things that make such a big difference. No landscape architect* can improve on Collingwood’s natural riches, but our goals aren’t just about aesthetics. They consider a multitude of factors that, when carefully thought about, can work together to make a property’s environs beautiful, usable, safe, and harmonious for the people who are there to enjoy it.

Our Collingwood architectural design*, interior design, and landscape architecture* teams work together seamlessly to ensure that throughout all earlier stages of the project, realizing the landscape design is a shared end-goal. Together, they see to it that both the infrastructure and requisite space are established to execute the final landscape design. For some, this may include allotting and grading in preparation for a first-class tennis court, for others it may mean site prepping a cozy lakeside patio or outdoor kitchen. Whatever our clients’ vision, our job is to make it their reality, and we achieve this through our hallmark integrated approach, which ensures that no single element of a project is ever considered in isolation. While landscape installation by its nature falls at the end of a project, at Madison Taylor Design, this never makes it an afterthought.

Just as a good interior design will facilitate the smooth flow of movement through the inside of your Collingwood home, good landscape design will ensure easy and seamless transitions between areas on your property out of doors. Thanks to the integrated design principles we utilize at Madison Taylor Design, your landscaping plan will be set before construction of your building begins. This allows us to guide the builder to install any necessary infrastructure—from retaining walls to the electrical supports for landscape lighting—into place, saving unnecessary delays and wasted resources near the end of the project.
