Where people, live, work, and play forms the structure of a community. NSPJ’s goal is to ensure that each component of a residential lifestyle community will encourage and support community building relationships between the people who live there.
NSPJ Landscape Architects will work with you to evaluate the surroundings of the property, natural amenities of the land, goals for the project, and needs of the larger community to create a successful residential land plan.

The integration of amenities such as swimming pools, hiking/biking trails, fitness and recreational facilities, views and water features set our residential lifestyle communities apart from the rest. These amenities also promote community interaction that provide a sense of place. Important aspects of the community design are the relationship of buildings and open space, creating ¬pedestrian connections, an ease of transportation flow, and the ability to take advantage of natural features of the land.

Whether you need architectural design or have your own designer, our Landscape Architecture team can collaborate to create functional, memorable and imaginative community designs. Our experience working with local city staff makes the process as seamless as possible for our clients while also protecting their interests & investments. We can assist you in realizing the full potential of your development project.
