Landscape Architecture

One of the services we offer at D.A Gracey & Associates is that of Landscape Architecture. It is a diverse profession that can include the disciplines of horticulture, site grading, architecture, industrial design,soil sciences, geography, planning and ecology, among others. The practice of Landscape Architecture in Ontario requires membership in good standing in the Ontario Association of Landscape Architects and the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects.

Landscape Architects can develop projects from overall concept designs and master plans, to detailed design drawings, working drawings, technical specifications and detailed budgets. They can also review proposals to authorize and supervise contracts for the construction work, prepare tree assessments, prepare permit applications for municipalities, regions, Conservation Authorities, the Oak Ridges Moraine and the Niagara Escarpment Commission.  Many of these organizations require drawings to be provided by and stamped by a Landscape Architect.
