Don Thalmann
When creating an attractive and functional landscape design, all aspects and variables are equally important. These variables include project site restraints, clients' wants and needs, layout of plant material and hardscaping -- patios, paths, boulders, and water features. All these factors and options used in an artful manner create a unique and aesthetically pleasing visual experience for the viewer while enhancing the beauty, usefulness and overall value of one's property.

After working in landscape installation for five years in California, Don joined the Campbell's team in 1994. Classes in architecture and graphic design have added to Don's practical experience, and his work in landscape installation helped him develop a style for the designs that he now creates.
