When you hire LandShapes Inc., you get the owner working for you, not just hired hands. I’m committed to delivering more than I promise.  My approach is simple: I listen to what you need, or want.  If you have a “vision,” I will develop a plan to make it a reality within your budget; if you don’t, my strength is creating concepts that satisfy your criteria and budget.  Either way, my goal is to develop an agreeable plan, source quality materials, and execute right-the-first time, on schedule and within budget.  My clients confide that my sense of “ownership” of their projects made me the clear choice when selecting a service provider, and that’s why they refer me to their friends and neighbors.

My name is Ryan Geismar.  Having graduated from Miami of Ohio with a degree in architecture in 2004, my dream was to combine a love of nature and my ability to design into a worthwhile enterprise.  That same year, I created LandShapes Inc., a landscaping design and installation company operated out of West St. Louis County.

LandShapes Inc. is a member of the USGBC (U.S. Green Building Council).  My green earth initiative makes a difference in how I approach your project, from design through installation:

• The site will be properly prepared, ensuring peripheral plantings are left undisturbed
• Optimal drainage and erosion control measures are considered
• Sustainable native plantings are recommended for this climate and your specific soil and watering conditions
• Materials are carefully managed
• Disposal is performed in a complete, timely fashion
