Design-first landscape design for Occidental properties

Occidental is a small village in the west Sonoma County hills, surrounded by redwood and oak forest, with rural homes on wooded acreage. We design landscapes that feel at home in the forest and make a country property easy to enjoy.

West county gets cool, foggy summers and some of the county's heaviest winter rain. We design for shade, slope, and drainage, with woodland and native planting that fits the setting and fire-wise zones close to the house.

On acreage, a master plan sets the order: what happens near the house, where the vegetable garden and orchard go, and how paths connect it all, so the property can be built out in phases.

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.
