C. Brad Peterson Environmental Management and Landscape Architecture offers integrated, multi-disciplinary design solutions in sustainable land management, environmental design and landscape architecture. Brad has over 20 years experience in private and public sectors for large and small projects in urban and rural settings.  Sustainable Landscapes and Conservation
Development
New urbanism or true smart growth
provides many opportunities to reduce our ecological footprint through
lifestyle changes and evolution of built form. Eco-village and solar
home projects include design elements of a new 'solar landscape'. This
innovative landscape style incorporates integrated site planning,
enhanced storm water management, water, energy and resource use and
reuse systems and waste treatment using biological processes, with
protection of biodiversity and cultural resources, four-season organic
food production and many other intriguing elements.
Property Environmental Management and Land
Stewardship, Trails
Integrated land management
solutions are based on a host of environmental, social and economic
considerations, which include sustainable forestry, reforestation,
trail systems, education and research opportunities, organic
agriculture, permaculture design, ecological restoration, protection of
species at risk, soil erosion and sedimentation control, view and vista
management, naturalization and fine landscape design.
Civil Engineering Project Support Mr. Peterson serves on
multi-disciplinary architectural and engineering consulting teams that
provide a variety of environmental, facility development, project
approval, and construction administration services for government
agencies, municipalities, and the private sector. In addition to
providing input on grading, drainage, environmental design and
landscape design, Brad manages projects and co-ordinates input of
associates from a variety of specialized disciplines. Highways and
organic farms are a specialty.
Visioning, Landscape Planning and Design,
Research, Mapping, Reporting
Design facilitation and visioning
exercises precede landscape master planning and site design. This
process results in an integration of environmental protection and
landscape design with architecture, circulation, and servicing
infrastructure. Organic land-based production systems are optional.
Research, report preparation, mapping and CAD-based drafting services
are provided.
Residential Design
Residential projects often allow for
distinctly unique and creative design opportunities.
Scale of these projects vary from condominium balconies to standard
residential lots, to large acreage estates.
Sustainable landscape elements such as xeriscape,
low-maintenance borders, herbal lawns, edible landscapes and water
reuse features can make residential landscapes more interesting, energy
and resource-use efficient, and ecologically friendly.
