Whether you’re looking for a zen-like garden retreat or an outdoor living space that’s as beautiful at night as it is during the day, DabneyCollins | Landscape Design in Greenville & Upstate, SC can bring your dream to life. But before you begin, it’s important to understand the nuances of landscape designer vs. landscape architect so you can partner with the right team for your project’s scope.

When landscape architect Dabney Peeples rambles on his 75-acre property in Easley, he listens to what the land has to say. He encourages wildflower meadows, ponds that create rippling ripples, a muscadine orchard, and winding paths for rambling walks. He creates thickets to give critters a place to hide. And he makes sure to maximize edges, because “most of the life happens there.”
