Process
At Landscape Theory Studio, our process is rooted in collaboration, precision, and a deep respect for the land. From initial consultation to ongoing care, we guide every phase with transparency and intention—blending artistry with expertise to create outdoor spaces that enrich daily life. Our approach begins below the surface, prioritizing organic methods that build healthy, living soil. We enrich each new landscape with compost, apply slow-release fertilizers seasonally, and use foliar sprays and root drenches to strengthen plant systems and surrounding ecosystems. The result is lasting beauty, tailored to Austin’s unique environment.
Initial Consultation
Every great design begins with a conversation.
During our on-site consultation, our designer takes the time to understand your vision, lifestyle, and character of your property. Together, we’ll walk the site, uncover opportunities, and discuss challenges, setting the groundwork for a design that feels both intentional and captivating. Together, we’ll begin shaping the framework of your dream outdoor space.
Collaboration
Design is a partnership.
We believe getting to know you is just as important as understanding the land itself. Through conversation and a detailed questionnaire, we learn about your personal style, daily rhythms, and long-term goals. This shared vision guides every decision, ensuring the final landscape feels deeply personal and perfectly suited to you.
Design and Development
Bringing ideas to life.
With insights gathered during the consultation, we craft a bespoke design concept that blends beauty, resilience, and precision. This phase is where your ideas come to life on paper, offering a clear vision of your future landscape.
Proposal and Installation Estimate
Transparency is at the core of our process.
Once you approve the design, we create a detailed, itemized estimate that outlines the materials, features, and labor required to bring your landscape to life. This contract will outline specifics, regarding timeline, costs and objectives. It will serve as our foundation for collaboration, giving you complete confidence as we move forward together with transparency and clarity on the upcoming project.
Installation
This is where transformation takes root.
Our expert team begins by carefully preparing your property, ensuring every step of the installation is executed with precision and professionalism. Open communication keeps you involved every step of the way, guaranteeing a final product that goes above and beyond. The result? A property that feels both extraordinary and uniquely yours.
Maintenance
A well-designed landscape deserves thoughtful lasting care.
To help your outdoor space thrive year after year, we offer tailored maintenance plans that preserve the beauty and health of your investment. From seasonal pruning to irrigation adjustments and plant health assessments, our maintenance services ensure your landscape continues to flourish, remaining a vibrant extension of your home.
