Our Story
Southern Design Companies began its journey in 2009 as a small landscaping venture in North Atlanta founded by Blanchard Benson. The business primarily partnered with regional and national homebuilders and soon developed a reputation for customer-centric focus, relentless dedication to quality, and commitment to exceptional service.
​
As the years passed, the guiding principles of the SDC brand have been carefully preserved, resulting in remarkable growth of the company. The desire to continually improve the operational efficiency of the business by taking on new challenges has led to innovative approaches and a lot of change. In 2014 services were enhanced when the company vertically integrated with an in-house plant nursery and expanded materials inventory. Later in 2016 the company was further strengthened by adding concrete foundations and flatwork scopes of work to its service offerings. The addition of helical piers in 2019 further broadened the company's expertise and capabilities. In 2022 the company opened a commercial arm of the business to service general contractors for multi-family and commercial projects.
​​
With a big vision for the future, today the Southern Design Companies team serves residential builders, build-to-rent contractors, developers, earthwork contractors, and general contractor clients across the Southeast. Strategic industry partnerships with both customers and vendors has enhanced scalability, which in turn delivers value to the customer. This longstanding commitment to our core values and growth of the business continues to drive success and define our identity in the industry.
