Our Design Philosophy
Thoughtful Design. Natural Beauty. Lasting Impact.
At NOAR Landscape Design, we believe exceptional landscapes should do more than enhance a property's appearance: they should create a meaningful connection between people and nature. Our approach combines thoughtful design, ecological responsibility, and timeless beauty to create outdoor spaces that reflect each client's vision while complementing the surrounding environment.
We emphasize sustainable practices, native and regionally appropriate plants, and environmentally conscious design solutions that support biodiversity, conserve resources, and promote long-term landscape resilience. By balancing aesthetics, functionality, and environmental stewardship, we strive to create beautiful, purposeful landscapes that enrich everyday living and leave a positive, lasting impact.
Our Design Process
Our design process includes your feedback every step of the way. This collaborative approach helps our team generate as many creative options as possible, while we work towards a completed Landscape Plan.
Typically, our design process typically takes approximately 7-15 business days to complete from start of project to finish. (However, the process may vary, based on project scope, timeline, revisions, etc.)
Note: If your project requires site plan review, this process may take an additional time, depending on your engineer's timeline and city review process.
After receiving your thumbs up, designer will make any necessary adjustments and finalize your Landscape Plan.
This plan will call out proposed site features, specific plant selection and dimensions.

After finalizing plan, your project will then move into the bidding and construction phase.
Note: We don't provide any construction/installation services.
If you don't have a contractor in mind, we can help you find options in your area.

Much like a photographer offers various packages, NOAR offers a couple different types of Landscape Plan Options. These options outline what is included and how you can customize to your specific project's needs.
