Visit one of Charlotte's largest custom landscape design showrooms!
To better serve our clients, we are now offering 3-D landscape designs.
While we don't give away our designs, it really helps to see how your outdoor living area will look from different perspectives.
Most of the time, we can spend a couple hours to get a concept and some general pricing. Once our clients come to the store and see the design, we can then talk about revisions and design fees.

Hardscapes:We started the outdoor living design center for 1 main reason: To give people a chance to see and touch the objects that they could only imagine or see in a magazine.
Our outdoor living design center features many of the hardscapes needed to complete the perfect backyard. From paver patios to outdoor kitchens, we will continue to design and build at this location for years to come. Our outdoor living design center features items such as:

Softscapes:While the hardscapes are the "backbone" of the outdoor living area, none would be complete without the use of a strategic planting design. Adding the proper mix of deciduous and evergreen plants is crucial, as most people want to have some type of visual impact throughout the year.
Color is another important factor when designing any project. We will be fortunate enough at Visions Supply and Design to experiment with many different types of shrubs, trees, grasses, perennials and groundcover. 
Perennials add tons of color and come back each year!!

Low Voltage Lighting:
Waxhaw, NC low voltage lighting system.
Now we come to my favorite part of any landscape design project: Low voltage lighting!!
Why spend money on an area to entertain and not be able to see it at night?
For the last 6-7 years, we have been trying to include a landscape lighting estimate with every project, even if the client didn't request it. With proper planning in the design stages, we can come back at a later date and install any lighting system.
Our system of choice lately has been a standard low voltage system with LED bulbs. In addition to the energy savings, you increase the life of the bulb from 4,000 hours with a standard halogen to approx. 45,000 hours with an LED bulb.
