Alida Landscape Design

We worked with Alida twice, for the front and the back of the house. Both turned out spectacular. It is so nice that our house was chosen for the garden tour. Our yard is on the small side and she did wonders. It feels like we added 2 new rooms in the back. In the front, we are still in awe of the results. The plants have grown nicely and still love to stare at it. Alida is very talented and took the time to listen to our likes & dislikes, assimiliting them and coming with with ideas that we both love.

We are so happy to have had Alida do our landscape design, and quite frankly we felt very fortunate to have found someone such as her to work with. The kind of dedication and pride she puts forth in her work is extremely admirable, we highly recommend Alida Landscape Design. Alida did the design work for both our front and back yard. Prior to meeting Alida, our yards were in disarray, it was hard to maintain because of some issues, including inconsistent leveling of the ground, and drainage issues. Alida was able to identify our concerns and gave us an impressive understanding of how to address them, easily. She gave us a landscape that is functional, easy to maintain, but also beautiful. Of the mainly great qualities we loved about Alida were that she is reliable and trustworthy. Alida was involved throughout the whole entire process, from the design work all the way to the final steps of putting plants into the ground. She is committed and proud of her work, what we wanted for our yards, Alida delivered and then some. Thank you Alida!

Alida had a vision for our yard that was far beyond what we imagined when we hired her. It was a wonderful experience to work with someone so talented and professional. We now have a garden that is beautiful year-round, and that we enjoy more than we had imagined.

Alida did a great job designing and managing our front yard landscape project. She took all of our ideas and requests and put them into a great design that will be easy to maintain. Our house has great curb appeal now! Thanks Alida!

We have enjoyed working with Alida to create and actualize our home landscaping project. Alida is very knowledgeable regarding plant types and what works best in our environment. She consistently sought our feedback and focused on the details during every step of the project.

Alida provided us with detailed blueprints of our landscape design project based on our likes and dislikes. She assisted with obtaining building permits in a timely fashion. She worked with the general contractor to answer any or all questions regarding the proposed blue print. Alida provided us with a detailed plant design, purchase and settings. She provided us with color schemes or ideas for folliage and patio. We would recommend Alida for all your landscaping design needs.

Alida designed our front and back yards. She listened to our wishes and proposed several designs to accommodate all members of our family. Very easy going, Alida was great to work with. Now we love our backyard.

We hired Alida last summer to have her design and consult on our backyard renovation. She took the time to understand our needs and desires for a backyard for entertaining, relaxing, as well as toddler and pet friendly with a contemporary look and feel. After selecting one of her two creative designs, we continued to refine, discuss materials and custom builds with Alida always keeping a focus on our budget. Although we had to put our project on hiatus over the winter, she stayed engaged with us by checking in and sending ideas to us. We are now moving forward to estimate and contractor phase this summer. We are excited to continue the process with Alida as she is so passionate about her work

We have a challenging yard that we were looking to completely renovate. We interviewed several designers and chose Alida because where everyone else said "oh, wow, this is a challenge," Alida embraced it and immediately came up with several innovative design ideas that will truly transform the space. Now working with her, it's clear that Alida really gets to know the space and puts a lot of thought and care into the details. We can't wait to see the finished product!

We hired Alida to design our planting for our front terrace and landings around our stairs and our rear garden. Both turned out beautifully and we have receive many compliments from our friends and neighbors on the new design and plantings. Alida is great to work with -- she is creative, responsive, responsible, and attuned to her clients' needs and budget.

The wonderful thing about Alida is that she get major jobs done, but she also is great at the details that finish everything off. When she finishes a project it is really finished, with everything looking perfect!

We've worked with Alida on the renovation and continued care of our S.F. garden since 2002. She was introduced to us by our Architect when we needed to solve a grading and drainage problem. Alida had creative, functional and beautiful solutions. She designed several diverse, yet cohesive gardens throughout our property which my family enjoys immeasurably. As an Artist myself I appreciate Alida not only as an excellent Designer, but as a trusted partner in the development of our landscape.
