What is a Landscape Designer's Style?

For years landsdcape desgners have expressed themselves in many ways, from indoor landscapes, and beaches, to the hardcore sandy landscapes of the west.  For some reason landscape designers have always come back to the same principles any designer would.
You see design is really all the same, whether you design houses, or landscapes, you still have to use the same principles. Those principles you will see all over, the principle of balance is represented in almost everything we do even down to our daily lives. So if this is true how come every designer doesn't design the same exact thing.
This is the wonderful God given item we call "style." A landscape designers style is what really seperates one designer from another. It's how you can tell who designed a certain set of clothes, home, or anything for that matter. It's sort of like a signature, every ones signature is different, and so the landscape designer seeks his or her own signature to express themselves with.
Landscape designers in Huntsville Alabama are not all alike either, each one has his or her own style of designing. It's not that one is better than the other, but they are different. The realy question is "What is your style of landscape?" or "What style of landscape do you prefer?" Answering this question would be the answer to all your problems, well at least some of them.
I'd like to share a little bit of information though from a designers prespective.  I'm a landscape designer in Huntsville AL, and I have my own style of designing. However, as a designer there is one thing I have to keep in mind, and that's the thing that seperates White Shovel from the traditional landscaping company. That is the first thing we are required to do when talking with a new client, "Find the clients style." We go through an in depth interview process with each client, carefully searching for the the things that make up each client's style. Next we attempt to create a landscape design that matches the clients style, we do this on actual pictures of the clients home using photo editing software. This allows you to see if the design fits your taste and style. Once you pick through the ideas you like and do not like, we then begin to put a plan together for installing the design, or style of landscape you chose. You will then have a landscape design that fits your style of landscape.
 
It's really an incredible process, and the designers stay absolutly neutral, they simply abide by design standards, while you choose the style. This is a match made in heaven, and you will love the landscape design process.
