Landscaping in Farmington Hills, Michigan

Earth Art Landscaping serves Farmington Hills, Michigan, a community of approximately 83,000 residents that blends established suburban neighborhoods with a thriving commercial landscape. From the tree-lined streets of Independence Commons to the bustling Orchard Lake Road corridor, Farmington Hills homeowners and business owners value outdoor spaces that are both attractive and functional.

What sets Farmington Hills apart from other Oakland County communities is the prevalence of active homeowners associations. Many of the city's most desirable neighborhoods operate under HOA guidelines that regulate everything from fence heights to plant species. Our design team is experienced in creating landscape plans that meet HOA requirements while still delivering a distinctive, personalized outdoor environment for each homeowner.

We have worked on projects throughout Farmington Hills since 1987, giving us intimate knowledge of the city's soil conditions, drainage patterns, and the specific expectations of each neighborhood. Whether you live near Heritage Park, along the Farmington Road corridor, or in one of the newer developments east of Halsted, we bring the same attention to detail and design-driven approach to every project.

Commercial & Cultural

Beyond Residential: Farmington Hills' Commercial Landscape

Farmington Hills' commercial corridors along Orchard Lake Road, 12 Mile Road, and Northwestern Highway represent a significant portion of our work in the city. Office parks, medical facilities, and retail centers in Farmington Hills compete for tenants and customers partly on the strength of their exterior presentation. We design and install commercial landscapes that project professionalism year-round, with seasonal color programs, low-maintenance foundation plantings, and entrance features that make a strong first impression.

The Japanese Cultural Center and Tea House in Farmington Hills demonstrates the community's appreciation for thoughtful landscape design. The principles of Japanese garden design, including asymmetric balance, borrowed scenery, and the careful use of stone, water, and plantings, inform our approach to many Farmington Hills projects. Homeowners near Founders Sports Park and along the Drake Road corridor frequently request garden designs that incorporate Asian-influenced elements, from dry creek beds to specimen Japanese maples.

Farmington Hills' position along the western edge of Oakland County means properties here receive slightly more wind exposure from the agricultural areas to the west. We account for this when selecting plants for exposed areas and designing overhead structures, ensuring that pergolas, shade structures, and tall plantings can withstand the stronger gusts that are common along the Haggerty Road and Halsted corridors.
