Commercial Landscape Design

Experienced, Affordable Commercial Landscape Architecture

J. Duggan & Associates can act as a prime consultant, or collaborate on multi-disciplinary team projects as a sub-consultant.

We have successfully implemented numerous commercial landscape design projects, locally and nationally over the last fifteen years.

We are available for meetings throughout Northern Virginia and the DC region.

Professional Commercial Landscape Design

We are committed to working successfully  with others. Our rural location and limited overhead offers you very competitive rates unfound in metropolitan areas such as Northern Virginia.

Our clients include both the private and public sectors:

  • Federal and local government
  • Public agencies such as park, school and hospital boards
  • Private development corporations
  • Architectural and engineering design professionals
  • Environmental consultants
  • Private citizens.

Although we handle relatively large commercial landscape design projects, we are well suited to solve those small, problematic items that other firms will bypass.

For example, planting plans or  small outdoor spaces that need to be included in a project or incorporated into a building’s site plan.
