“…we just love all of the work you and your crew did for us… Working with John and his entire crew was an absolute pleasure. From our very first meeting, we knew exactly what to expect, and when to expect it. John had a terrific feel for what we were trying to accomplish, and provided very good suggestions as the project progressed. The end result turned out much better than we had anticipated. – Kassan

Recently, Russell Design was responsible for the construction a large brick monument sign I designed near the entrance to Lawson State Community College in Birmingham. The plans developed for this project included a rather intricate patterns of brick and limestone work that were challenging to construct. Russell Design did a fabulous job in following the plans and construction details that resulted in the best looking and well built signs of any of the four similar monument signs already constructed on campus. The final product was artfully constructed by the construction crew. Hats off to Russell Design for a job that was professionally managed, completed well within the allotted construction period and resulted in a very happy client. As a landscape architect, I highly recommend using Russell Design on your next project if skill and quality workmanship are what you are looking to attain.
