Landscape Design

  • Entry Planning

  • Designs explaining the sequence of events that a user experiences as they enter your property. We focus on elements that make for a sensory experience - the texture in a given material, color of built and plant material, scent of built and plant material, vertical elements like wooden structures, signage, and walls, and sounds like the trickle of a fountain.

  • Site Plan Concepts

  • Designs created from a list of desired site elements such as a fountain, BBQ area, rock garden, etc. We look at the natural site features and design to maximize the desired effects such as views, privacy, or entertainment.

  • Planting Plans

  • The planting plan is used to show where each plant will be located on site, the mature size of the plant, and sometimes other elements such as color, water requirements, or fragrance.

  • Hardscape Plans

  • We offer conceptual hardscape plans that differentiate between the materials and finishes that will be used for constructed elements such as driveways, patios, and walls.

  • Irrigation Plans

  • We offer conceptual irrigation plans to determine the type of system best suited for the proposed landscape plan. New technology and a properly planned system can save water, maintenance, and money.

  • Brush Management Plans

  • A plan that is created to help protect a structure from wildfires. We study the existing planting density, fuel loads, and irrigation system and offer solutions to help keep your structure safe in the event of a fire.

Our team of LEED certified professionals can help make your building and landscape become more resource efficient.

  • LEED Certification

  • Assistance in getting your new or existing building and landscape certified through the US Green Building Council's "LEED" program. "LEED" certified buildings are designed to consume less energy, create a healthier indoor environment, and use less raw building materials.

  • Efficient Landscape Proposals

  • A switch to a California friendly landscape will conserve water, require less maintenance, and save money in the long run. We will conduct studies of your existing irrigation system, plant types, and maintenance schedule. Once a study has been completed we create a plan of action that will turn a water and maintenance thirsty landscape into a California friendly landscape.
