At Congaree and Penn Outdoor Design, we believe landscapes and structures are inseparable, that ecology, architecture, and the way people actually live in a space are all part of the same design problem. We're a full-service landscape design-build firm specializing in mature tree installation, unique botanical elements, and biophilic design, creating outdoor environments that grow gracefully over time and serve as lasting extensions of the home. We do this because we're creatives at our core, energized by the challenge of adapting to each new site and drawn to spaces that bring people back into relationship with the natural world around them. Led in design by Shields Simpson and led in operations by Eric Gebicke, our team stays involved from first concept through final planting, so what you get isn't a landscape imposed on a property, but a space for gathering, reflection, and living well that feels like it was always meant to be there.
