Thanks for being a great Client Eric! **★★★★★ — Tony Hill, Nov. 2020** > We hired Tyler Schwartz Design to do a complete overhaul of our home's front yard and could not be more happy with the results. From the initial consultation through to the design phase and final installation, the process was smooth, effortless and fast. Most importantly, Tyler is a highly-talented designer, an expert in all manner of regional trees/flora/shrubs, and the consummate professional. We would absolutely work with Tyler Schwartz Design again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone seeking top-notch residential/commercial landscape design and installation. **Comment from Tyler Schwartz Design:** > Thank you Mr. Hill it was a pleasure working with you all and can’t wait to see your wonderful new landscape grow in! > > I attached a few other before after shots below so we can look back on this great little project ! > > Kind Regards, > > Tyler **★★★★★ — HU-134601465, Nov. 2020** > Tyler was a valuable professional and worked with us thoroughly to execute our landscaping vision. His knowledge of our native plants, the diverse landscapes and his strong industry relationships would help most projects achieve success. I look forward to working with TSD again! **★★★★★ — Fidelma Farinas-Cobas, April 2018** > We recently redid our entire landscape with Tyler. He worked with us over the course of three months, to design and implement our dream landscape. First, he took the time to listen to our ideas and he made sure to understand our needs, including space for a raised bed and incorporating a gravel area, as well as our aesthetic vision. Then, he designed the entire landscape, incorporating his extensive knowledge about native plants. Having just lived through Hurricane Irma, it was important to us that we plant things that are able to withstand the high winds that can come through Miami during a storm, and Tyler had ample suggestions for trees that not only survived the recent storm, but that thrive in an environment like ours! He also made suggestions for plants that would help us conserve water, and that would invite native birds and butterflies to come into our garden. Tyler's insight helped us save plants from our existing landscape, even helping us relocate a J-trunk triangle palm from the back of the house, making it a focal point of our front yard! He was instrumental in purchasing all of our plants, which included coordinating among multiple nurseries. Lastly, he was available on site to help oversee the installation, including measuring and identifying the location for all the excavation and planting. Now that everything is established and blooming, we hear compliments from our neighbors and friends all the time, and I can't help but smile every time I pull up into my driveway! **★★★★★ — Eddy A, June 2017** > Tyler is well versed in Florida natives and really did an outstanding job planning for our home in Pinecrest including landscape, hardscape, irrigation, and tons of earth removal. **Comment from Tyler Schwartz Design:** > It was a pleasure to work with you and your wife on your home Landscape and I am so glad your kids also enjoy the new space we created. The new Oolite slab retaining system turned out really incredible. > > Glad you can now enjoy your landscape as a family. > > Best Regards, > > Tyler **★★★★★ — REINES DESIGN, INC, May 2017** > Tyler is one of the most knowledgeable hands on landscape designers we have worked with. He is always on call and quick to respond. His on site supervision and coordination of subcontractors is fantastic. He is an excellent person to work with and makes that process truly a pleasurable one. We highly recommend Tyler! **★★★★★ — stuart rosenberg, Nov. 2016** > A pleasure to work with, Tyler is creative, honest and delivers as promised. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. His work is clearly his passion and he aims to please his clients. **★★★★★ — Lily M, Nov. 2016** > I was thrilled with Tyler Schwartz Design! Tyler is a very educated, dedicated, and honest professional. He really knows what landscaping works in our environment and has great suggestions for design. He is always on-time, courteous, and hard-working. I have used Tyler several times and will continue to do so. I have recommended him to friends and he has done great work for them too. I can't say enough about Tyler Schwartz Design! **★★★★★ — s Distef, Aug. 2016** > I hired Tyler to work with my son and his wife to design a plan for his home in coconut grove. He was punctual, respectful and well educated on what would work best for his property. We are extremely pleased with his design work and my son described him as a hidden gem. We had a tight budget as well and he was so very flexible in offering alternative plants that could provide the function needed at a lower cost. I am now in the process of bidding out the design work to a landscaper. As they perform very different functions, I would recommend that if you are looking to landscape your yard, you use Tyler for the design and a landscaper for the implementation. He also provides a service to inspect all plants that the landscaper acquires to assure they are the right ones and that they are healthy. **Comment from Tyler Schwartz Design:** > Sandi, > > Thank you for your support of the work we do and the love we have for the creation of landscapes that give back to the land, ensuring pollinator, bird friendly habitats that are seasonally rich, low maintenance, and most importantly inspire our clients to help enrich our vision of ecological landscape design. Moving forward into project administration phase, we will ensure the project maintains the design integrity to the fullest extent of your family's vision for your home while staying sensitive to program, budget and design goals. > > Best regards, > > Tyler Schwartz > > President/Principal Designer > Tyler Schwartz Design **★ — T W, March 2016** > I hired Tyler to do some landscaping in my front yard. When he arrived, he had only 1 person with him to help (a family member) and had virtually no equipment/tools. He had to borrow tools from my husband to complete the job. He also broke a sewer line in the process of the installation. He did not offer to repair the sewer line, my husband patched it and there is still a giant hole in my yard. There were plants on the blueprint plans that were never put in the yard (some groundcover). The mulch that was layed down looked very bad. It was uneven and not even remotely level. I could have done a better job and I have not a clue how to do it. He did not edge the beds until I asked him to. > I would not recommend anyone to hire this landscape designer. **Comment from Tyler Schwartz Design:** > Mrs. Weir, > I'm sorry you feel you can not recommend me as a landscape designer. Based on your feedback on the project I completed for you 7 months ago, It seems as if you found the installation portion of the project to be unsatisfactory. As a designer I was very excited to make the project come to life and enhance your home. I take pride in the work we completed at your home because you had a specific budget and we were able to meet your needs based on the your budget at the time. Unfortunately the contractors I work with can not be flexible on the rates they charge and so I made the call to personally install the project in the spirit of keeping the project affordable for you and your husband. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance to you in the future. I would appreciate the opportunity to help you on managing any issues in the future you would like help with such as horticultural maintenance and locating the ground cover which was not available at the time of installation. > > Regards, > > Tyler Schwartz > > Principal Designer > Tyler Schwartz Design ## Selected projects - [Historical Miami Beach Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/historical-miami-beach-renovation-pj-vj~6509756) - Location: Miami Beach, FL - Photos: 10 - [Miami Beach Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/miami-beach-residence-pj-vj~5574308) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 34 [See all 2 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-architects-and-landscape-designers/tyler-schwartz-design-pfvwus-pf~1259963978) ## Ideabooks - [calypso coral samples](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/116867438/list/calypso-coral-samples) — 5 ideas - [Rojas Garden Planter inspiration](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51543709/list/rojas-garden-planter-inspiration) — 8 ideas - [path](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51537432/list/path) — 1 idea [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/tylerschwartzdesign) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
