Harmonizing Beauty and Sustainability: Ecological Design by Urban Ecology

Welcome to the Ecological Design page of Urban Ecology, your premier landscape design company in Whatcom County, Washington. We’re committed to creating stunning landscapes that not only enhance your outdoor living experience but also contribute positively to the local environment.

Ecological Design: A Commitment to Sustainable Beauty

Ecological design is a fusion of aesthetics and environmental consciousness. It’s about creating landscapes that are beautiful and functional while minimizing their ecological footprint. At Urban Ecology, ecological design is at the heart of everything we do. We aim to create spaces that respect and enhance the local ecosystem while providing you with a unique, personalized outdoor experience.

Strategically-Planned Spaces

Our ecological design process starts with a detailed analysis of your site. We consider factors such as topography, climate, existing vegetation, and soil health to inform our designs. By understanding these elements, we can design landscapes that work with nature, not against it, leading to more resilient, lower-maintenance spaces that blend seamlessly with their surroundings.

Plant Selection for Local Biodiversity

Promoting local biodiversity is a key aspect of our ecological design. We prioritize native plant species that thrive in our local conditions and provide habitat for local wildlife. These plants are typically more resilient and require less water and maintenance than non-native species, making them a sustainable choice for your landscape.

Sustainable Practices for a Greener Future

In all our designs, we incorporate sustainable practices such as water-efficient irrigation systems, rainwater harvesting, and organic pest management. We also strive to use environmentally-friendly materials and limit waste, ensuring that our landscapes contribute to a healthier planet.

Creating Landscapes Where Nature Thrives

With ecological design, you get a landscape that is not only visually stunning and enjoyable to live in, but also plays an active role in conserving the local environment. It’s a win-win solution for you and for nature.
