Residential Landscape Design

At Studio Wattle, I believe the landscape is an extension of who my clients are. Through my design process, I carefully craft every landscape to be custom-tailored to each individual client - celebrating who you are. From the onset of the design process, your budget will guide the conversation to ensure we reach a design that can be implemented successfully. A staple of my residential design process is that we allow a design to emerge through our conversations mixing in expression, functionality, and creativity to arrive at a landscape we can all be proud of. I employ my experience in botanical gardens, international landscape architecture practices, and education to craft unique solutions for every landscape.

Benefits of hiring a Landscape Architect to design your landscape…

A well-designed landscape can significantly increase the function and aesthetic of your home.

Landscape architects create cohesive designs that blend the landscape with your home’s architecture to create a holistic experience throughout your property that is more inviting and attractive.

  1. Increased Property Value:
    Thoughtful and well-constructed design can increase the value of your home by improving curb appeal and creating desirable outdoor spaces. Studies have shown that well-maintained landscapes can increase property value by as much as 15% or more.

  2. Improved Functionality and Usability:
    Landscape architects design outdoor spaces that maximizes the use of available space. Whether it’s creating relaxing outdoor living areas, functional gardens, or safe play spaces for children, a landscape architect can make the outdoors more enjoyable and practical for daily living.

  3. Environmental Benefits and Sustainability:
    A landscape architect can implement sustainable design practices, such as selecting drought-resistant plants, optimizing water use with efficient irrigation systems, and integrating natural features like rain gardens or permeable surfaces to reduce runoff. These eco-friendly solutions not only protect the environment but also lower utility costs for homeowners.

  4. Increased Privacy and Comfort:
    Landscape architects can design features that provide privacy and comfort, such as fences, screens, or strategically placed plantings. This helps create a more intimate and relaxing outdoor environment while reducing noise, wind, and unwanted views from neighbors or the street.

  5. improved stormwater management:

    A landscape architect can design features like rain gardens, permeable pavements, and proper grading to manage water runoff. These features help reduce flooding, prevent soil erosion, and improve groundwater recharge by allowing rainwater to be absorbed into the ground rather than flowing into storm drains. This sustainable approach helps protect local water quality and supports a healthier ecosystem.
