CMHP Design, LLC

We have hired landscape architects for over 20 years and Carissa is absolutely the best. She has a tremendous vision, can communicate it so you can visualize the outcome, does a great drawing things out in CAD and then bringing things to life. She is also great when you are having to adjust your budget on the fly and still make things work beautifully. If you are a person who pays attention to all of the little details and cannot always be onsite, you can trust her completely to make sure things are done 100% correct. Of all of the vendors we used in building our house, Carissa was my favorite!

Carissa is very talented and seeks an understanding of a client's goals and related budget. She follows-up and communicates with the client positively. She developed a landscape plan and administered the installation for my new home five years ago in Clemson's Patrick Square, and I continually have many complements from neighbors and passersby. I give my highest recommendation to CMHP Design.

Terry Farris

My home was designed by an architect as his home, and he did not hire a landscape architect or designer for his property as he designed it himself. Soon after moving in, I discovered I had severe property drainage and water issues caused by rain, especially around the foundation of my home. Carissa was hired. She studied the terrain and did an analysis of the property and quickly developed a plan to correct the water problem and protect my home's foundation. At my request, Carissa designed a detailed landscape plan which gives me a great deal of privacy, beauty, and peace. With her people and listening skills, she understood exactly what I wanted and worked directly with the installer...

I have worked with Carissa installing several custom residential and light commercial landscape projects. She has extensive skills in design and implementation, for all aspects of landscape and hardscape construction. Her approach to each design is professional well thought out. I would recommend her to any client desiring a high-quality design.

Carissa did a wonderful job working with clients from out of state who had many requests for a 10 acre site. They needed new landscaping around the house, walking trails and an extensive vegetable garden and greenhouse. She is very knowledgeable about native plant material with a strong sense of design. I highly recommend Carissa!

RSCT architecture + design

Carissa has created numerous high end landscape and hardscape designs for me over the past few years (in excess of 30 projects, ranging from $20k to $300k); her attention to detail and creativity are second to none. Carissa has impeccable taste and broad knowledge of architecture, landscape architecture, interior design and master planning; her ability to visualize a site and its potential are what truly set her apart from many of her peers in the landscape design industry.
