After doing a bit of research, I realized that Landscape Design was exactly what I was looking for. It allowed me to explore my passion to create, as well as work outside.”

“Brandon and the Four Seasons crew did an amazing job not only transforming our front yard landscaping but also coming up with an installing a backyard plan that worked with our existing sixty-foot maple and completely shaded backyard.” —Kristen K., Berkley

Creating An Ideal Outdoor Space

Brandon’s love for the outdoors shows when he is creating a new landscape plan for his clients. He takes time to understand a client’s needs and wants prior to coming up with a vision for their outdoor space. He enjoys watching the transformation over multiple years. “I love watching something I’ve envisioned for a client come to life. From a small backyard space to an expansive outdoor living area, it is exciting to watch a plan come together.

Being in Landscape Design and working with live plantings as our design elements, it is rewarding to revisit a project 3-5 years after installation and see the design matured as it was intended.”

“Every project has its own set of challenges. Being in Michigan, I am commonly working on sites that are heavily shaded and are frequently visited by deer and other critters.” Recently Brandon was able to complete a project in Berkley that was heavily shaded and the client was thrilled with the transformation.

“Brandon and the Four Seasons crew did an amazing job not only transforming our front yard landscaping but also coming up with an installing a backyard plan that worked with our existing sixty-foot maple and completely shaded backyard. The whole job was completed in a timely manner and Brandon was out the next week to check on everything. We couldn’t be happier with Four Seasons from start to finish!” —Kristen K., Berkley
