Expanding Your Liveable Space with a Focus on Sustainability, Artistry, and Personalization
Your dream home isn't just a structure. It's your entire property, both indoors and out, and it's defined by how it makes you feel. From the moment you arrive, an exceptional landscape design welcomes one home and flows naturally inside and out. A well-thought plan encourages you to step outside, giving you the opportunity to enjoy the natural world from the comfort of your home. It expands your living area, giving all family members more room to thrive. In the best scenario, it's a sacred space that's customized to suit your lifestyle and your preferences, with designated areas for meditating, entertaining, relaxing, and connecting with the people you love.
Your landscape shouldn't be like everyone else's, because you and your family aren't like anyone else. At Austin Living Landscapes, we approach each landscape design with you in mind. We start with a blank canvas, ready to fill it in with all your favorite landscaping features, colors, and textures to align with the existing architecture and your unique property features. At the first consultation, we want you to tell us about yourself and how you intend to use the space. From there, we work toward a plan to functionally place every pathway, patio, and plant according to your vision. With 20 years of experience in the Barton Creek, Texas area of Austin, we can help you solve landscaping challenges, identify maintenance needs before you commit to a specific feature or material and knit your ideas together into a plan for a truly magnificent outdoor space.
The landscape design process includes opportunities for you to share feedback, and we work toward a common goal of a plan you’ll love. We blend materials to bring out the natural elements of earth, fire, wind, and water in your space for a balanced vibe that feels like home. When you envision it, you'll feel joyful anticipation, and when you step into your outdoor space for the first time, you'll know you have arrived.

How the Right Landscape Design Can Help You Find Your Peace in a Busy Modern World
An outdoor living space that merges with your home and becomes a part of your daily life is what you've been missing. Experience more nature, more usable space, and more opportunity for connection with yourself and the people you love. Contact us, and we'll reach out to schedule the consultation that will put your project in motion.
It sounds dramatic, but it's really quite simple. Humans thrive in nature and relax in cozy spaces, and you can bring that all together in your own backyard. Landscape design isn't just a patio and some plants. It's about weaving your daily habits with your aesthetic preferences to create an outdoor space that's perfectly suited to you and your lifestyle. You're naturally drawn to it because it's a reflection of you, and when you spend time in that space, you feel recharged and rejuvenated.
At Austin Living Landscapes, we bring more than 20 years of landscape design-build experience to work for you, along with an understanding of what a great landscape is capable of and how it can change your life for the better. We keep that in mind with everything we do:
A thorough consultation and site inventory so we can tailor the landscape for you
Detailed design presentation so you know what to expect from the process and have a clear idea of what the finished space will look like
Sustainable landscape design and practices to reduce maintenance demands and create a lasting outdoor space
