DESIGN

Trilling Landscape is a full service design and build company. We create custom landscape architectural and design plans for residential and commercial projects in the greater Los Angeles area. We have a broad range of experience in landscape designs, from formal English Gardens to California drought tolerant Native – from Italian countryside to modern and minimalist.  Trilling Landscape has designed and installed hundreds of projects over 25 years, each unique and tailored to our client’s needs.

We begin with a conversation to gain a clear understanding of our client’s vision, goals and budget. Our design process generally starts with inspiration boards, followed by concept plans and detailed presentations. Trilling Landscape has a team of experienced designers, architects, and engineers capable of leading or supporting projects of any size.

Depending on the scope project, Trilling Landscape will determine which design format(s) would be most appropriate to create a vision and plan for the space.
