Marin County # Landscape Design in Marin City, California Landscape design for Marin City's hillside homes and bay views. [Schedule my $100 consultation](https://halldesign.info/book/) ## Design-first landscape design for Marin City properties Marin City sits in a sheltered valley just off Highway 101 beside Sausalito, with hillside homes looking toward Richardson Bay. We design gardens that make steep, compact lots usable and make the most of the view. Fog, wind off the Golden Gate, and steep ground shape every Marin City garden. We design terraces and retaining that turn slopes into usable space, wind-sheltered seating, and coastal-tolerant planting that handles salt air and summer fog. Hillside lots back onto open space, so we plan fire-wise planting and materials near the house and careful drainage on the slope, then coordinate a concierge handoff to trusted local builders.

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. Micheal Crawford “ 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. Daniel Lebe “ No Cookie-Cutter > Ian is the landscape designer I prefer to work with on any project.
