It was 2003 when we opened our doors and we’ve been doing great things ever since. We are a full-service Landscape Design/Build Firm and you can find us in Clawson, Michigan. We design and build residential and commercial landscapes for Homeowners and Contractors alike, throughout the Michigan market.
Every day, we live by our motto: “You deserve only our best efforts,” it’s those best efforts that set us aside from others. Wilson Design Associates isn’t someone you come to for a few bushes (they’re actually called shrubs) and some perennials, we’re a firm that transforms your space into something spectacular and worth living in.
