There is nothing that is more inspirational than an aesthetically pleasing landscape design. 
Combining a beautifully designed planting plan with elegant, practical architectural details for a pool or spa can be challenging for some, but not for Stephen
Suzman of Suzman & Cole Design Associates.

"We understand style, and pay a lot of attention to detail," states Mr. Suzman. "What sets us apart is that we are very strong at both the architectural and horticultural aspects of every project."

As one of the foremost landscape design firms in the country, Suzman & Cole have successfully fulfilled the dreams of their clients from all parts of the U.S from Hawaii to Martha's Vineyard, from Indonesia to
Mexico and Europe.  "We consider ourselves non-iconic in that we do not leave our personal stamp on our work - other than that of overall design excellence and attention to detail.  Our landscape designs are site-specific,
architecturally-appropriate and client-directed," states Stephen.  "We like to reflect the taste of the client as much as possible and hope that the client/designer dialog makes the design process a pleasant educational experience."
