Conscious Environments Inc.
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 6, 2014
“Tungsten Royce has worked with Conscious Environments on several projects in the Orange County area. Josh and his crew posses a wide range of skill sets that allow them to execute beautiful projects, on time, with amazing detail. Josh's design skills are exceptional; every project I have seen is stunning. His ability to move between styles proves his dedication to his craft. He does not do the same thing over and over again like so many designers do. All of his work is unique and well thought. I would like point out the professionalism of his crew as well. The guys are "on it". They are engaged, aware and have always had a great attitude when faced with less than exciting situations. Great Company!”

Stout seamlessly incorporates comfort features - like our ceiling mounted heaters - that are styled to fit their clients needs. We look forward to seeing what new spaces they create!”
My Garden: Landscape Design by Wayne
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 28, 2016
“I recently bought a home in Irvine. I have a rather large tiled patio space in the back and wanted to do something special with it. But I have no knowledge of plants, which plants would look good, which plants would survive best, and which would require not too much water. I found "My Garden" on Houzz.com and I feel lucky I did. I wanted not only plant advice but also someone who could help me design the space. I wanted not only plants but furniture, a fire pit , and a fountain. Wayne did all that for me. He came over and took measurments. The following week he brought to me a professionally drafted design for my space, complete with a variety recommended plants, pots, furniture , fountain and the best places to get them. This was all for a surprisingly reasonable one-time price. It was exactly the information I needed. Now I can set about to obtain everything and create my dream patio environment at my own pace, and according to my budget. Wayne is a pleasure to work with, very easygoing, not pushy, and he's prompt. An interesting thing about him is his knowledge of horticulture. He's a walking encyclopedia ! He explained to me that he taught and was the founder and program director of the Landscape Technologies Program at Cal Poly University Pomona for 24 years. He was also the founder/director of the Xeriscape Water Conservation Program at UCI. He walked with me through my garden and told me the names of all of my existing plants, even he rare ones with both their common as well as their botanical names : "This is a Dombeya Wallichii " "That is a Dizygotheca" etc etc etc for every single plant in my garden. I was awed !! He rattled off the names as readily and matter-of-factly as if I had asked him if the sun was shining. And it was ! I can't say enough about Wayne !!”
Pachamama Inspired, LLC
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 6, 2020
“Sara is an exceptional design talent, and she is incredibly thoughtful and detail-oriented in her work. My wife and I hired her to design the complete renovation of our outdoor living space, and we are so incredibly pleased with her work. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process from the first consult, through project completion. She has a unique talent for envisioning her clients’ goals, and bringing them to fruition. Above all, she’s a good person, kind and considerate, and that is most important in our book.”
Green Scene Landscaping & Pools
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 9, 2013
“We are wanting to relandscape our back yard. We contacted Green Scene at the recommendation of a friend. The photos Scott brought and the videos we saw on HGTV definitely make us want to use this company. He was very professional and we liked him very much. He was interested in making our yard fit us and our lifestyle. But, our budget doesn't :-( His designs are beautiful and I have confidence that if we used them we would be very happy with the outcome. It's hard to make these big decisions and it's been over 6 months since we met with Scott and haven't gotten started with another company yet.”
W G Design
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 30, 2017
“How did all of this begin? We had a (very) old fence that was falling down and had to be replaced. Since there was a lot of vegetation growing on the fence, everything was removed at the same time. We now had a fresh start. Now what? We did some window shopping at several local nurseries. While we found items we liked, we weren’t sure how to put them together. Our area is a side raised bed only about 3 feet wide, but 70 long, plus an area in the front of the house. Many nurseries offer design services, so we decided to pay a little to get a "professional" design. We did get a home visit and a design, but were much underwhelmed, and were not comfortable going with it. Bingo, let’s look for a real pro! We found and spoke to several local designers. One of them thought that our project was a bit too small for her business and recommended Wendy, so we set up an appointment. We all three liked each other and verbally created a broad concept. Wendy sent us on more nursery recon. Together we came up with the long list of possible plants that we liked and might work together. Using the great image resources online we were able to cull the list down to about a dozen varieties. Wendy then did a CAD design, which we all reviewed on paper. Wow, it really looked like a great garden we could visualize. She added some cool touches like boulders; several espalier arrangements and a modern dripper system. Now we were really excited about the potential. As a major part of the service, she acquired all of the plants and materials and hired a team to do the physical work of planting and installing. All we had to do was take delivery and watch the creation unfold. We got lucky in that we installed in early February, during a rainy season here in LA. The plants and we all loved the rain. We’re about 6 weeks in now, and all looks great. We’re only doing a few additions and trimming. Wendy did a great design and implementation, but way beyond that, just enough hand-holding to make this a comfortable project for us. We got the desired effect that we wanted and that will require a minimum of care going forward. It’s actually fun to work on it and watch the growth each week. Go Wendy!”
Studio H Landscape Architecture
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 21, 2011
“I was extremely pleased with the services Studio H provided. They were able to comply with tight deadlines and a limited budget in a very professional manner. Mr. Hunt has an amazing eye for design and brought refreshing, modern plans to the table! ”
Botanica Landscape Inc.
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 4, 2020
“The design was perfect for us, the crew was clean, polite and reliable and the job costs came in well within our budget. This is actually the second time we used Botanica as the original landscaping was done 11 years ago and we will never use anyone else!”
Bosler Earth Design
Landscape Architects & Designers in Gardena
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 4, 2015
“My husband and I decided to remodel our front and back yards 3 years ago and wanted a drought tolerant garden. We hired Catherine through a friend’s recommendation who was very pleased with her work. Catherine is a pleasure to work with, she made sure that she understood what we wanted and listened carefully to find out our tastes and lifestyle. She brought lots of great suggestions that we would not have thought of and designed a beautiful plan. While the garden was under construction, she was hands on paying attention to every detail during the process making sure that everything was perfect and on budget. Three years later, the results are beyond our expectations, we get compliments all the time and people even stop in the street to photograph our garden. As Catherine told us, maintenance is low and we save a nice amount of money every month on our water bill compared to our old landscape.”

Professional landscaping anchors a house to the site, connects it with the environment and creates a welcoming entrance to a home. A Gardena landscape architect or designer works with living plants as well as building materials to design for future growth and maintenance as well as the present visual appeal. Landscape architecture is very regional, so look for a landscape designer near me that’s familiar with the local climate and plant types that do well there. Start here to learn more about the landscaping design services in Gardena, CA that will help create your dream garden.

What does a landscape architect do?


The work of this outdoor professional includes most everything surrounding a home's exterior. A landscaping architect can even work with the home architect to choose the right spot for your Gardena, CA house. From there the Gardena landscaper will develop preliminary concepts for your front or backyard design based on individual needs including the climate and activities that will take place, as well as layouts and planting plans. Landscape architects near me will also design any structures or outbuildings that will be added to the space. Any grading changes that will be added to the yard are also the responsibility of the architect. This includes any drainage modifications. An engineer can also be responsible for these tasks, but licensed California landscapers are fully capable. Like building architects, they will produce preliminary concept drawings as well as detailed construction documents and planting plans. Three-dimensional renderings and illustrative plans are all supplementary.

What does a landscape designer do?


A Gardena landscaping designer generally will have ecological, aesthetic and technical training, which helps them maximize the potential of your outdoor space. Keeping in mind both style and functionality, garden designers analyze your architecture and yard to produce a professional landscape design plan that may or may not include location and materials for walkways, patios, water features, fences, garden aspects and more. In addition, a landscaper in Gardena, CA will carefully assess your geographic region to choose plants, trees and flowers that will flourish naturally, as well as address concerns such as drainage, screening and soil conditions. Certain landscape designing services only help with the planning portion, while some may deliver the plans and then oversee a hired landscaping contractor. Others — typically following a design-build approach — take care of both the design and all aspects of the landscape architecture and construction.

Before you hire a California professional landscaper, consider the scope and emphasis of your outdoor project. Landscape architecture firms typically hire individuals who hold advanced degrees in their field and are trained to develop comprehensive structural plans that include plants, hardscaping, water use, drainage and more. Local landscape designers, also known as landscape planners, typically specialize in the aesthetic and horticultural, rather than structural, side of yard and garden planning. They might or might not have advanced training. Even within their fields, backyard designers near me may specialize in hardscape- or vegetation-focused designs. In some cases you might need to hire additional help to get the outdoor space you want.

Questions to ask prospective landscapers in Gardena, CA:


  • Can you provide me with references?
  • How long have you been in the landscaping business?
  • What is your certification?
  • Do you have liability insurance?
  • How much do you charge, and what does that include?
  • What regions and climates are you skilled in?
  • Can you accommodate my special requests (such as ADA or LEED)?
  • What types of renderings will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When can you complete this project?
  • What do your services include?
  • Who will be working on the project design?
  • What happens when costs exceed budget, whether due to materials or labor pricing changes? What about changes made by the client or by the professionals — what kinds of situations would cause those costs to be incurred?
  • Can you provide me with a written estimate?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns that you know of or that might come up in the future with this project?
