Landscape Design/Build
Landscape Design Solutions
For Westport, Darien, New Canaan, Greenwich, CT, and All of Fairfield County
From something intricate for a smaller space to a master plan for a large-scale property, LaurelRock will take the time to understand your landscape needs, tastes, and desires.
Beginning with an in-depth meeting to define your goals and aspirations, we move into a detailed site analysis. What are the challenges, the opportunities, and the hidden potential? From there, the creative process begins—culminating in a conceptual design master plan tailored to your vision.
Our award-winning design skills and creative resources are coordinated to not just meet but exceed your expectations. We thoughtfully consider landscape design elements such as balance, proportion, and flow to ensure every space feels intentional and aligned with your lifestyle.
From initial concept plans and construction to final designs and full landscape installation, our seasoned design team will transform your outdoor space into something distinctly personal and truly exceptional.
On top of our conceptual designs, our team also offers eco-friendly landscaping solutions to support a healthy landscape and maximize irrigation efficiency. While we plant perennial gardens, flowers, and shrubs, our technicians are also equipped to handle various tree care services—including pruning and removals—to prepare your property for long-term success.
Throughout the design process, we incorporate a variety of plant materials and factor in shade patterns, soil conditions, and overall site dynamics to help reduce plant stress and improve longevity. We also carefully consider elevation changes, spatial layout, and visual flow to shape movement, define boundaries, and create spaces that are both beautiful and functional.

Conceptual Design
Our landscape designers create unique and exciting landscapes that reflect each client’s lifestyle, expressing their vision and sensibility.
During the conceptual design process, we ask questions, listen carefully, sketch design ideas, research products, and share options. We also consider the property’s existing plants, structural features, and landscape elements, such as movement, sightlines, and balance. The result is a master plan and cost analysis—the first step toward ensuring that our clients receive the highest value for their investment.
For some properties, the conversation may include how much space to allocate for a vegetable garden, gathering area, or feature installation. Every decision is guided by thoughtful planning and an understanding of how each area should feel and function.
Design Development
Our design team creates detailed drawings for each aspect of the work (drainage, grading, layout, planting, lighting, and masonry, among others) on almost all projects. These working drawings solidify and refine the landscape planning and design process, providing material specifications and clarity to builders, field managers, and installation crews and, ultimately, reducing potentially costly field changes during construction.
Project Management
Getting it right and completely right is the challenge we push ourselves to achieve on every landscape construction project. From the outset, every function and stage—from scheduling and material selection to navigating the cumbersome land-use and zoning approval process to managing a construction timeline—is well defined and completed in a logical manner.
Our project management recognizes the fact that no two clients have the same needs or desires. Every detail of the project must be tailored to each individual property and budget parameters. Because we provide project leadership through both landscape architects and landscape designers, we build the bridge from concept to construction with a team approach that ensures seamless execution.
Drawing from our years of experience in landscape architecture, we coordinate everything from plant choices to grading strategy, ensuring landscape plants are installed thoughtfully and built features complement the surrounding environment. The result are projects that are completed with proper timing and remarkable attention to detail—consistently exceeding client expectations.
