Landscape Design in Plano, TX

Plano homeowners know what they want. A backyard that actually gets used. An outdoor space that looks as good as the home it surrounds. Design that holds up against North Texas summers without falling apart two years later.

That's what we build.

At Blount Designs, we design and build luxury outdoor environments across the full DFW metro. Our studio is headquartered in Plano — we know this soil, this climate, and these neighborhoods. We've been doing this since 2017 and have over 500 projects to show for it.

What Landscape Design Actually Means

Landscape design is not picking out plants and laying sod. It's a full creative and technical process — how your outdoor space connects to your home, how it flows when you're entertaining forty people, how it performs through a Texas summer, and how it still looks exceptional a decade from now.

We handle the design and the build. One team, one vision, no handoffs. What you see on paper is what gets built.

Luxury Landscape Design Services in Plano

Outdoor Living & Recreational Spaces

Outdoor kitchens, covered patios, pergolas, fire pits, sport courts, and gathering spaces designed around how you actually live — not how a catalog thinks you should. We build for the way your family uses the space, whether that's hosting Saturday dinners or keeping the kids outside until dark.

Pools & Spas

Custom pools with built-in spas, water walls, reflection pools, in-pool lounges, and water features that make the backyard the best place to be. Every pool design is built from scratch for the specific property — no templates, no off-the-shelf solutions.

Hardscape Design

Patios, terraces, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, and stone masonry that form the backbone of a well-designed outdoor space. Get the hardscape wrong and nothing else works. Get it right and everything else falls into place.

Landscape & Gardens

Climate-adapted planting design, front yard curb appeal, seasonal color, edible gardens, and orchards. We select plants that thrive in North Texas — not ones that look good in a nursery and die by August.

Water & Fire Features

Cascading waterfalls, custom fountains, koi ponds, rain curtains, and fire features that turn an outdoor space into an environment. These are the details that make a project feel complete.

Grading & Retaining Walls

Drainage, erosion control, and retaining wall design that solves real problems. North Texas clay doesn't forgive poor grading. We design drainage systems that protect foundations, eliminate standing water, and create usable space where there wasn't any before.

Why Plano Homeowners Choose Blount Designs

We're not a large crew cycling through subdivisions on a production schedule. We're a focused design and build studio — headquartered in Plano, working across DFW — that takes on projects worth doing right.

500 projects. 8 years. A small team that stays involved from the first conversation to the final walkthrough.

Our studio is at 5208 Tennyson Pkwy, Suite 110, Plano, TX 75024. We work by appointment — because that's how serious projects should start.

Plano's Landscape Challenges We Design Around

North Texas has a specific set of conditions that will expose weak design fast. Expansive clay soil that swells after rain and cracks in a drought. Summer heat that eliminates plants not selected for this environment. Neighborhoods like Legacy West, Willow Bend, and Hawthorn where the bar is high and the properties demand work that matches it.

We design around all of it — climate-adapted plantings, drainage systems engineered for clay, materials chosen for long-term performance in this specific environment. Nothing generic, nothing borrowed from a project in a different climate.

Our Design and Build Process

Every project starts with a direct conversation about how you use your outdoor space and what you want it to become. From there we move into a full design phase — detailed plans, material selections, a clear vision. When the design is locked, our team builds it. You work with the same people start to finish.

No design firm handing off to a separate contractor. No vision getting lost between two different companies. One team that owns the outcome.

Serving Plano and the Greater DFW Area

We work across the full DFW metro — Dallas, Frisco, Southlake, Richardson, Coppell, Westlake, Fort Worth, North Richland Hills, Aledo, and beyond. For clients outside Texas, we offer full online design services.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscape Design in Plano, TX

How much does landscape design cost in Plano, TX?

It depends on what you're building. A full luxury design and build — outdoor living, hardscape, pool, planting — can range from tens of thousands to well into six figures for larger properties. We work with homeowners who are investing seriously in their outdoor space. The best way to get a realistic number is to schedule a consultation and talk through the actual scope.

What is the difference between a landscape designer and a landscape contractor?

A designer creates the vision — the plans, the layout, the material selections, the planting strategy. A contractor executes someone else's plans. At Blount Designs we do both. We design your outdoor space and then build it, which means the vision stays intact from concept through completion.

How long does a landscape design project take in Plano?

Depends on the scope. A focused hardscape and planting project can move in a matter of weeks. A full outdoor living transformation — pool, outdoor kitchen, hardscape, gardens — runs several months from design through build. We give every client a realistic timeline before anything starts.

Do you only serve Plano, or do you work across DFW?

We're headquartered in Plano but work across the full DFW metro — Dallas, Frisco, Southlake, Richardson, Coppell, Westlake, Fort Worth, and beyond. We also offer online design services for clients outside Texas.

Can you design around Plano's clay soil and summer heat?

Every project we do in North Texas accounts for it. Clay soil requires specific drainage planning and plant selection to hold up long term. We engineer drainage into every design and select plants that actually survive this climate — not ones that look good in March and fail by July.

Do you handle both the design and the construction?

Yes. Always. We're a full-service design and build studio. One team manages your project from the first design concept through the final build. No handoffs, no gaps, no excuses.
