Norton Land Design
Creating harmony between natural & built environments
Our Specialties
Environmental Planning
We believe environmental planning should carefully balance human needs with upholding environmental integrity.
Let our team blend the built environment with the natural one while working within your community’s specific environmental regulations to deliver a project that meets your needs but also honors the environment around it.
Land Development
We believe land development should make the most of a property while respecting the natural features.
Our team will use our extensive knowledge of what makes the Mid-Atlantic area unique to fully maximize your property's potential.
Our designs are sure to meet regulatory requirements while exceeding your expectations.
Landscape Architecture
We believe landscape architecture should blend art and science to create projects that are realistic and sustainable.
From creating welcoming, intimate spaces using natural plantings to designing well-thought-out intricate or complex larger spaces, our team strives to create visually appealing environments that pair with your project’s natural surroundings.
“Norton’s work is versatile. Their experience is broader than most landscape architects.”
Strengthening communities while protecting the land
Our team has a passion for protecting and preserving our natural environment through developmental designs that not only support communities but also protect the land they thrive on.
