Residential Landscape Architecture

For more than 40 years, Arbor has established an enduring standard for residential landscape architecture in Greenville and the surrounding communities of South Carolina Upstate. Landscape installations that go back to our beginnings in 1976 still reflect the same aesthetic, botanical and architectural principles that guide us today.

This, as much as anything, defines Arbor.

For every home, our gifted residential landscape architects bring years of experience, so important in creating a truly organic plan that grows with you year after year.

How We Work

Regardless of the scope of your project, our first step is to help you understand your objectives and develop your vision, as well as to define your budget. Do you envision a more formal garden area or a “family-friendly” backyard? Do you need ideas from an experienced professional? Do you want to bring the same architectural feel of your home out-of-doors? Is privacy an important consideration?

From there we develop a plan that encompasses your environment and aesthetic preferences, as well as land preparation and architectural considerations. We look at your time horizon and maintenance requirements. For many families around Greenville, our landscape design projects will unfold over many years, allowing you to carry out your investment in a more budget-friendly plan.

With Arbor, you have the option of engaging us to simply design your residential landscape plan and provide periodic consulting services; or, Arbor will coordinate the pricing and installation of your project with trusted contractors.

For 40 years, Arbor has transformed the dreams of hundreds of Greenville area families into unique and enduring environments. As stewards of this magnificent land here in the foothills of the Blue Ridge, we look forward to the unique complexities and opportunities that every new project brings. Each is an expression of the love we share with you for your home.
