Aloe Designs
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 14, 2013
“The Aloe Design team was a pleasure to work with. They redesigned both our front and back yards and created a beautiful, low maintenance environment for my family. Cait has always been available for any questions or concerns I've had about the garden and the team has always completed the work in a timely, professional manner.”
TKL Design Inc.
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 1, 2015
“We initially hired TKL-Design to do our garden in Crescent Beach BC in the form of a traditional English Perennial Style. He truly transformed the garden into a story-book with an inviting winding stone pathway meandering through beautiful gardens of flowers, shrubs and trees . It doesn't matter where you stand in the garden - the small as well as the large is exquisite and consistent. We are now building a new contemporary home in White Rock BC and once again have turned to Thomas Kyle - principal designer and owner of TKL-Design, for the landscaping. His ideas so far are perfect for the sight and our lifestyle. We are very impressed by his bold creativity, yet he knows when to hold back for the full impact as well. He is a true professional with all the knowledge of the trade. Both our architect as well as our builder couldn't be happier with our choice of using TKL-Design.”
Take Root Gardens
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 4, 2014
“I hired Take Root Gardens in March of 2014 for a total overhaul of our modest Vancouver backyard. Not only was the execution flawless, they added a lot of value in the design and planning stage, with some great suggestions that worked out really well. During the actual work, they were always right on time, took very good care of our property during the work, and cleaned up spotlessly, even going so far as to powerwash our deck, which was not part of the project. What stood out the most, was how much care they took, and how detail oriented they were. The overall quote was very reasonable, and they came in right on budget and on time. I would hire Ty & Matt again in a second and highly recommend them.”
Hyland Landscapes
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 23, 2020
“I highly recommend Hyland Landscapes. We had multiple companies provide us with a quote for our backyard renovation and Hyland provided us with the most detailed quote and thorough plan. Their staff was on-time, professional, and very good at communicating during the project to help us get exactly what we envisioned for an end project. We have already recommended them to a few friends and they have followed up twice with us to see how we like the final product and check to see if any additional touch ups are needed. You will not be disappointed with these guys!”
Alina Gardens Inc.
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 25, 2016
“How gratuitous meeting Alina, who then took my simple plan of a backyard putting green to a beautiful garden incorporating my passion for golf. Alina was most accommodating to my various design modifications ensuring we got it right before breaking ground. We managed a sunken trampoline, with flat stone retaining wall, to pacify kids back yard hobby, two patio areas appeasing my wife’s desires for afternoon tea in the garden and my passion for golf, including a 20’X40’ putting green, a large sand trap and a well disguised 10x 15 golf hitting cage, all nestled around the large stone pathways and the strategic selections of plants and trees. It truly makes for a wonderful place to play or relax. The detailed design proved invaluable in ensuing contractor did not deviate from the design plan and her continued engagement with contractor ensured all the technical (drainage, soil etc.) and the above ground details were performed as required. Great vision, excellent aesthetic result, hopefully better golf.”

fronds&friends

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 20, 2019
“Fronds&Friends is owned by the lovely Eryn. She did a full cleanup and redesign of our balcony deck. Decked it out with new plants that would flower or change colours throughout the seasons so there is always something that stands out. She cleaned up after the work and we are just so pleased.”
Westland Design
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 27, 2013
“Tan, the owner of Westland Design Ltd, is wonderful. He listened and really understood our need. Me dad has alzheimer's and had started wandering. Now with our beautiful enclosed and gated courtyard, he is safe and we are happy. My elderly parents sit and admire the open and interesting space for hours and the birdies come and bathe in our little water feature. If dad were to wake up confused in the night he can sit in his softly illuminated garden and find peace and tranquility. Tan and Doug and Lucas worked so hard to create a work of art for us, we are completely pleased and grateful. I now feel a deep friendship for Tan and hope he and his team and family will always be a part of ours. Which is another fact in his favour, he took me around to many different project sites and all the home owners I met were so pleased with their projects, even after many years. I highly recommend Tan and Westland Design Ltd.”
Vancouver Garden Design by Klavdi Kukovic
Garden Designers in Vancouver
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 12, 2014
“I have been told that it is difficult for garden designers to possess all the skills necessary to be a great designer. However, Klavdi hones many of these skills. His respect for the history of garden design and his frequent travels to remarkable international gardens are evident in his designs. The ability to present these designs in such a professional manner minimises the stress in the decision making process. His knowledge of plants and their maintenance is irreplaceable. Respect for our budget and time was apparent throughout the development and it felt very comforting during some high stressful periods to have Klavdi at my side. He is a true professional. Klavdi was determined to deliver our vision and we have our dream garden. I would not hesitate to recommend Vancouver Garden Design by Klavdi Kukovich.”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration varies based on the projectʼs complexity and size. A small to medium-sized garden might take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months, from initial consultation to completed installation. Larger projects, especially those requiring significant structural changes, could take several months. A detailed timeline should be discussed with your garden designer early in the process.
Garden Designers select materials based on the siteʼs conditions, the projectʼs budget, and aesthetic goals. They consider the sustainability, durability, and maintenance requirements of materials. Staying informed about the latest trends through professional development courses, industry publications, and networking with peers ensures that designers can offer contemporary and innovative designs that still meet the timeless principles of garden design.
Homeowners should identify their needs, preferences, and budgets before consulting with a garden designer. Collecting inspirational images or creating a mood board can help convey your vision. Additionally, understanding your gardenʼs conditions, such as soil type and sun exposure, and having an idea of desired plants or features, prepares you for a more productive initial consultation.
Common challenges, like poor soil, limited space, or awkward layouts, are addressed through innovative solutions. Designers might amend the soil, introduce raised beds for better drainage, utilize vertical planting for small spaces, or create focal points to distract from less appealing areas. Their expertise allows for creative problem-solving that blends functionality with beauty.
Yes, Garden Designers often implement sustainability practices such as selecting native plants that require less water and are more resistant to pests, implementing rainwater harvesting systems, using permeable paving materials to improve water absorption, and employing organic gardening practices. These approaches contribute to creating environmentally responsible gardens that are both beautiful and sustainable.
Garden Designers can certainly work with existing landscapes to enhance or completely transform them. This can involve redefining spaces, introducing new plant species, and incorporating new features while retaining elements that work well. Working with an existing garden often requires a keen eye for potential and creativity to integrate the new with the old seamlessly.
