Our design process brings together the landscape, pool, outdoor living areas, budget, and construction details into one clear direction for your home.

1. Design Consultation

We begin with a 2 to 3 hour on-site consultation to understand your property, goals, priorities, and how you want to use the space.

2. Concept & Vision Planning

We develop a custom design direction that connects the landscape, pool, patios, planting, hardscape, and outdoor living areas into one cohesive plan.

3. Design Refinement & Budget Alignment

We refine the design, review the project scope, and develop a realistic budget before moving into scheduling, planning, or permitting.

You receive a completed design direction with no obligation to move forward into construction.

Alderland Offers Design Services for Custom Pools & Outdoor Living

Concept Design

Concept design is the first step in shaping a thoughtful outdoor environment. Alderland studies the property, architecture, lifestyle goals, and project priorities to develop a clear design direction for the landscape, pool, and outdoor living spaces.

  • Defines the overall layout, flow, and project vision.

  • Identifies ideal locations for pools, patios, planting, and gathering areas.

  • Connects the home, landscape, and architecture into one cohesive plan.

  • Provides early guidance on feasibility, priorities, and budget direction.

  • Creates a roadmap before moving into detailed design or construction.

Planting Plan

A planting plan brings structure, softness, color, and long-term balance to the landscape. Alderland selects plants around your property’s architecture, climate, sun exposure, soil conditions, irrigation needs, and the way each outdoor space will be used.

  • Creates a cohesive and visually balanced landscape.

  • Selects plants suited to your property’s climate and site conditions.

  • Adds year-round color, texture, movement, and visual interest.

  • Enhances privacy, shade, screening, and outdoor comfort.

  • Reduces long-term maintenance issues and plant failure.

Concept Design, Planting Plan & 3D Visualization

See the full potential of your outdoor area before construction begins. Alderland uses concept planning, planting design, and realistic 3D visualization to help you understand the space.

  • Visualize the pool, landscape, patios, planting, and outdoor living spaces before construction.

  • Explore aerial flyover views that reveal the full layout and movement of the property.

  • See lighting, materials, planting, and architectural details beyond a traditional 2D plan.

  • Make confident decisions early and reduce costly changes during construction.

  • Create a clear shared vision between the homeowner, designer, and builder.
