Bryan LaComa Landscape Design

1. Reliable and Responsible: Trust is a word I take very seriously. Trust between myself and my clients is the cornerstone of our relationship and is the single most important item in an industry filled with horror stories of jobs gone wrong. After more than 20 years in the industry I have learned that to achieve this trust with you we must work together, communicate clearly and set realistic goals. Once gained, the end result is a team approach and relationship between client, designer, and builder that will exceed any contractor experience you may have ever had. Trust is very difficult to gain but oh so easy to lose. 2. Passion: Landscape Design and Construction is more than a job or a paycheck to me. It is intertwined with all of the passions in my life that together make me who I am and fuel my desire to not only design exceptional landscapes, but also to protect the natural world that I spend so much of my time in. As a nature photographer, fly fisherman and avid outdoorsman I am lucky to be able to say that there is a fine line between work and play. 3. Creativity: Creative landscape design solutions inspire and ignite the imagination. Carefully orchestrated combinations of color, form and texture are balanced with function, budgets and a need to be environmentally responsible. They provide places and opportunities for enjoyment, reflection, entertainment, rejuvenation and inspiration. I create landscapes to connect people with the outside world that exists beyond the walls of their home and inspire them to pause and reflect on the ever-changing scenery that unfolds with each passing day. 4. Sustainability: I have considerable experience designing and installing projects that environmentally perform specific purposes. Rain Gardens and pervious surfaces that clean, filter and slow storm water and its accompanying first flush pollutants from entering our creeks, rivers and local waterways. Wildlife Habitat that encourages diversity and provides locations for native birds, insects and bees to sustain populations in an ever-dwindling urban environment. Responsibly and correctly using local resources creatively in a manner that durably lasts for years while also encouraging, educating and inspiring people to look at these issues as opportunities and effective solutions for their homes and gardens. Beyond a checklist of L.I.D. items though is a will to educate, inform and protect all resources, including your families. By managing projects to run efficiently I can reduce the amount of labor (costs) and resources needed to install your landscape. By designing landscapes that do not need excessive amounts of water or fertilizers to maintain the high aesthetic levels I demand from my yards, I can reduce the resource demands of the future that your household needs to invest. Finally, by maintaining long term relationships with each and every client I work with, I can ensure this thought process is maintained for years to come.
