Design-first landscape design for Cotati properties

Cotati keeps its small-town character around the hexagonal downtown plaza, with older cottages close in and larger semi-rural lots on the edges. We design gardens that fit that mix: relaxed, water-wise, and well made.

Cotati sits squarely in the Petaluma Gap wind corridor, with cool marine air most afternoons and clay soils near the Laguna de Santa Rosa. We plan wind breaks and sheltered outdoor rooms, plantings that like the cooler air, and drainage that respects how wet the ground gets in winter.

For larger country lots we bring the same design-first approach as a city garden: clear structure near the house, looser naturalistic planting further out, and room for edible gardens, chickens, or a long dining table under the trees.

Better Than DIY
When we decided to remove our swimming pool and redesign our backyard, we planned to do it ourselves. After we couldn't agree on designs or scope, we hired Hall Landscape Design. Ian incorporated our ideas and his expertise into a design that exceeded our expectations. He was pleasant, flexible with changes, and stayed in communication throughout. Highly recommend.

Clear Plan + Smooth Execution
Ian and his team did a wonderful job. He created a personalized, functional space, gave multiple options, and delivered a detailed plan any contractor could use. After design, his team connected us with reputable contractors for bids. Highly recommend.
