Landscape Designer Auckland

Are you looking for a landscape designer in Auckland? Here at By Design, we know that good design often solves problems. We consistently develop thoughtful design solutions that our clients love.

We can tell you with absolute confidence that a landscape design is not one-size-fits-all. That is why we take time to get to know each client’s style, desires, needs, and constraints during their one-on-one consultations.

Reimagining a space you have lived in for a while or inherited can be difficult – many of us tend to get stuck in our ways. When you work with a By Design landscape designer in Auckland, we will help you prioritise the spaces in your garden and give you fresh direction to optimise the space.

Our approach

Undertaking a new landscape design is a new experience for many of our clients. 

Over the years, we have found that offering a pre-design phase for our clients is far better than rushing into a design. It creates space for clarity on the brief, including planning requirements and the anticipated budget. The pre-design phase exemplifies the way we prioritise full collaboration with our clients.

When we get to the design phase, we will have a more complete picture of your requirements to create an inspired, unique landscape. Attention to detail is critical to our approach – during the design phase, we cover every possible aspect of your requirements to ensure a smooth implementation.The construction phase is where we build your garden. Working with trusted landscape contractors, we aim to go above and beyond your expectations to make your ideal garden.

Why choose a landscape designer in Auckland?

If you feel there are some complexities to overcome or that the span of the project is far beyond the normal scope of design and planting plans, you are likely to need the steady hand of an experienced landscape architect.

Because how you utilise and feel about your home is significantly influenced by the design of your exterior space.

At By Design, we strive to marry your interiors and architecture to your site and develop a cohesive, site-specific design that belongs to the way you live.Let us take you through the advantages of working with a landscape architect or landscape designer in Auckland.

We know plants

Getting the best out of well-chosen plant species to achieve the end goal is what we offer. Taking into consideration aspects such as colour and form, we can find you low-maintenance, dry-tolerant plants, and plants that will thrive and establish in tough environments.

We can source and order the plants for you, often at less than retail cost. To take away all the hassle, we can even coordinate their delivery to your garden.

We see the big picture

We have an intuitive understanding of landscapes as systems. Your garden will have its own set of unique possibilities and problem areas, and to optimise the space, we will address them all. If you are looking for qualified and experienced landscape architects and designers, at By Design, we have trained extensively in the art of making details work together to serve the whole.

Ultimately, this skill of ours will save you time, money, and stress.

So even if you intend to move on from your house in the future, you can reap the benefits of our services.
