Thinking Green

Our effort toward sustainable landscape design is more than fashion. The “green” design movement is revolutionizing our industry expectations that promise safer, healthier, more economical, more maintainable and effective spaces in which to live, work, and play.

Martin Design is actively incorporating these standards by implementing native seeding, bioswales, rain gardens, vegetated rooftops, and the specification of indigenous plant materials into a variety of our projects. Because we take a site specific and ecological approach to all of our work, we adapt ‘green’ solutions to all of projects. Our projects are seen as solutions to larger more complex environmental problems.

Martin Design embraces design principles that allow us to preserve, restore and improve our natural environment while providing our clients with highly functional, cost-effective improvements. This approach reflects our strong commitment to environmental stewardship, and it makes for better results…for everyone.

Thinking Green is simply smart design.
