Our Landscape Design Services in Seattle

Residential Landscape Design

Our residential landscape design work creates outdoor areas that feel like they've always been part of your house in Seattle. We spend time figuring out how you actually use your space—where people hang out during parties, which areas need some privacy screening, and how much weekend maintenance you're cool with. Plants, walkways, lights, outdoor rooms—we map it all out in a way that makes your home more valuable and way better looking.

Working locally this long means we know your dirt, where puddles form, and which corners never see sun. Everything's customized to what your property needs, so you end up with something gorgeous and useful that Seattle weather can't wreck.

Commercial Landscape Design

Great commercial landscape design does more than keep things tidy—it tells visitors what to expect before they even reach your entrance. We handle offices, shopping centers, HOAs, apartment buildings—places that need landscapes tough enough for our rain and simple enough to maintain without constant fussing. Site plans, plant choices, hardscaping, how people move through the space, keeping things sustainable—we cover all of it.

The spaces we create improve your visibility, make access easier, and give your property real street presence. Decades working around here taught us how to build landscapes that stay strong, look sharp, and don't blow maintenance budgets.

Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Landscape Design

Seattle folks care about the environment, and honestly, our landscape designers are right there with them. Our eco approach focuses on using water smartly, choosing native plants, making habitats for bees and butterflies, and building something that lasts without constant intervention. Rain gardens, paths that let water through, plants that handle dry spells, smart shade planning—these moves cut your maintenance time and help the local ecosystem.

Every project gets shaped around your specific spot's weather patterns and conditions. You wind up with something that looks organic, adapts when the weather gets strange, and wastes way less water while still looking beautiful. It's a yard that feels good to hang out in and is easier to maintain.

Top Benefits of Installing Synthetic Turf in Your Backyard

Metal & Aluminum Fencing

Your fence doesn't just mark where your property ends—it changes how the whole outdoor area comes together. Metal and aluminum give you modern durability that works perfectly for Seattle houses and businesses. These materials brush off rust, need barely any attention, and hold tough when rain and wind keep coming. Horizontal slats for that sleek contemporary feel? Classic pickets? We'll help you pick the style, height, and color that works best. Our installation is precise, so everything lines up perfectly, even when your land slopes weirdly or dips in odd places. What you get is a fence that's secure, looks clean, and isn't going anywhere.

3D Design & Visualization

Looking at your finished design before construction starts takes away all the stress and second-guessing. Our 3D renderings show you the real deal—how big plants get when they're grown, what the lighting looks like after dark, and how different materials play together. Clients tell us this step is their favourite because there's no more wondering or worrying, and you can change stuff early when it's easy.

Our landscape designers in Seattle walk you through every angle during the consultation, discuss different layout options, and adjust the details until it feels completely right. Once installation kicks off, you'll already know exactly what's coming, which makes everything smoother and way less nerve-wracking.
