Top 5 Reasons to Use a Landscape Designer

Landscape designers provide homes with more than just beautiful scenery. Across the country and here in Cincinnati, landscape designers give people new ways to spend time outdoors in an enjoyable environment. They boost homeowners’ pride in where they live. They’re masters of their trade, and, like Seiler’s, they provide full-service project management that’s more dependable and more sustainable than DIY projects. 

With specialized knowledge and skill sets, landscape designers enhance your home’s overall quality, from visual aesthetics to property value. Here are five reasons you want to hire a Cincinnati landscape designer for your Queen City home.

Merging Art and Science

Landscape designers work at the crossroads of nature and art to create spaces that are both environmentally sound and aesthetically appealing. They pull from a wealth of knowledge about plant life, climates and native ecosystems, and combine it with artistic elements of design like balance, variety, texture and unity. The result is a pleasing balance of amenities, comfort, sustainability and visual appeal.

Selecting the Right Plants 

Not all locations are the same—even when they’re in the same region—and each property has its own physical characteristics and environmental needs. Cincinnati landscape designers in particular, who are extremely familiar with our Midwestern weather patterns, know how to analyze a property’s climate and plant life compatibilities so that your outdoor living space and your property’s natural elements work together in harmony. They’ll also determine what kind of plant life is most suitable for your lifestyle needs and style preferences.

Making the Most of Your Space

Specialists like landscape designers can envision the potential of a property better than anyone. By surveying the environment and understanding how you and your family spend your time there, they can enhance your home in ways you hadn’t even considered. Where you may see just an open space in your yard, a landscape designer might envision a pergola, a stone creek bed or a paved walkway to a garden. The possibilities that open up when you hire a landscape designer are endless.

Boosting the Value of Your Property

Landscape designers know the importance of a first impression. Homes with high curb appeal tend to sell about seven percent more than homes that are lacking, according to Realtor Magazine. In our region, where the real estate market is competitive, Cincinnati landscape designers know that properties with great curb appeal (and incredible outdoor living spaces in general) pay off for homeowners.

Increasing Livability 

Living and working in a visually appealing space that brings you comfort goes a long way toward your and your family’s overall contentment. Landscape designers find opportunities to enhance the atmosphere so that you can indulge in life’s little pleasures and enjoy where you spend your time. It could be evenings with your family on a newly furnished patio, entertaining friends around a firepit or hosting a pool party. Landscape designers get to know your needs and lifestyle, and imagine ways to make your home life even better.
