I had an issue with getting grass to grow in my front yard due to a lack of sunlight and a sloping issue - his design took this into consideration and offered an aesthetically pleasing solution. Matt listened to my wants and needs and incorporated them into his design. I would highly recommend him. **★★★★★ — NPI Design, Dec. 2016** > As the owner of a Dallas design company for more than 30 years, I am very selective about who I retain to assist on my projects. After my first experience with Matthew Murrey approximately two years ago, I was so pleased with his talent and professionalism that I hired him for my own home which is currently under construction. I appreciate that he strives for excellence in all aspects of his business. His ability to provide design documentation that is timely, reliable, useful, and "letter perfect" makes for a smooth and informative process. Matthew and his wife Heather are two genuine and honest people. Because they are a husband and wife team, accessibility is enhanced as well - a rarity in my business. His poised and calm demeanor wears well over the course of a long project. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a talented and dependable landscape design firm. NPIdesign-Niki Samuel **★★★★★ — Mezger Enterprises - Architectural Cut Stone, Nov. 2016** > Working with Matt on his stone projects has been a huge sigh of relief as a cut stone fabricator. His attention to detail, creative designs and obvious over-the-top work ethic makes him a wonderful partner to work with. Mezger is looking forward to future projects with his team! **★★★★ — Rick Redwine - Waterscapes, Inc, Nov. 2016** > Its refreshing to work with a designer that has a great eye for design and detail. We have worked on several of Matthew's projects over the past few years and it has always been exciting to help take his designs to from concept to completion. **★★★★★ — Mohment, Nov. 2016** > I had the opportunity to work with Matthew Murrey and his team on a large modern home I designed in Plano. The ideas were excellent and they were an absolute pleasure to work with. They listened to my clients wishes and helped create a stunning landscape design that blended perfectly with the aesthetic of the home. Their use of 3d design helped immensely and they are one of the only residential landscape designers I have seen use this technology in their everyday work flow. I have recommended them to other clients with the same success and will continue to do so. **★★★★★ — Brian Thacker, Nov. 2016** > Matthew and Heather were a very professional team that I had the pleasure of working with on my new construction home. Matthew's ideas and design execution followed the guidelines we set in the beginning of the project. After collaborating together, we have a design I'm very excited about. Matthew works timely and offers good insight on plants, materials, etc. He designed a great pool and spa for us, too. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a landscape architect/designer. **★★★★★ — tfalgout1, Aug. 2015** > Matt did a great job designing our outdoor living area, including replacing an existing pool and designing an out door kitchen and separate living area, as well as all the related landscaping. Matt then directed the construction and made sure everything was done as expected. The attention to detail and followup was phenomenal, and i would highly recommend Matthew Murrey Design. **★★★★★ — billmeyer5026, Aug. 2015** > I used Matthew Murrey Design for my new pool with spa, along with an Arbor with a fire pit, and extensive landscaping front and back on my 1 acre lot. I totally enjoyed working with Matt and Heather. They were EXTREMELY knowledgeable. The grounds look better than I could have imagined. I highly recommend them. > Bill M > Dallas ## Selected projects - [Neoclassic Inspired Garden](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/neoclassic-inspired-garden-pj-vj~247735) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 16 - Description: This suburban estate is located right outside of Dallas.
