The Importance of Landscape Design & Landscape Architecture

Landscape Design & Architecture: The Art of Creating Extraordinary Outdoor Spaces

What is landscape design and architecture? It’s the perfect blend of creativity, expertise, and vision that transforms ordinary outdoor spaces into breathtaking havens of beauty and functionality. At Marquise Pools, we understand the importance of landscape design and architecture, and it is at the core of everything we do.

Landscape design and architecture encompass a wide range of skills and knowledge. It goes beyond just planting trees and shrubs. It involves comprehensive horticultural expertise, grading and drainage engineering, irrigation design, hardscape design, and even pool design. This holistic approach ensures that every aspect of your outdoor space is carefully considered and integrated seamlessly.

But what exactly is master planning? It is the process of designing a cohesive and integrated outdoor space that harmoniously combines elements such as lush gardens, inviting pathways, and stunning pool designs. Our licensed landscape architects bring unrivaled expertise and professionalism to every project, adhering to the rigorous standards set forth by the Texas Board of Architectural Examiners.

What sets us apart from other companies in Houston is our commitment to having registered landscape architects as part of our team. Our landscape architects are not just skilled in drawing and design, they possess a deep understanding of composition and aesthetics. This allows us to create master plans that go above and beyond, surpassing industry standards and setting new benchmarks of excellence.

A company that doesn’t have a landscape architect falls short in their qualifications, to differentiate them and to be at the top of the industry. Most pool companies that don’t have a landscape architect, they will go outside and hire one and pay them lots of money to create these drawings and then they build it.

Unlike many other pool companies, we have taken it a step further by establishing a design-build-landscape architecture firm. This means that we not only create the drawings and designs, but we also have the expertise to implement them. From obtaining the necessary permits to executing the construction, we oversee every step of the process to ensure the highest quality and attention to detail.

Why is landscape architecture so important? Because landscaping should never be an afterthought. It should be an integral part of the master plan, working in harmony with the pool design and addressing all concerns, not just pool-related ones. By treating landscape design and pool design as interconnected elements, we create outdoor spaces that are not only visually stunning but also functional and inviting.

Our commitment to excellence extends beyond design. At Marquise Pools, we have established a design-build-landscape architecture firm, which means we not only create the drawings and designs but also have the expertise to implement them. From obtaining the necessary permits to executing the construction, we oversee every step of the process with the highest quality and attention to detail.
