Sustainable Design and Precise Installation for a Life-Enriching
Outdoor Space
Good landscape design considers your preferences as well as your existing space and architecture, how you intend to use your yard, the condition of your soil, the area climate, and more. It's about creating a harmonious space that's as low-maintenance and environmentally responsible as it is beautiful and functional.Â
We specialize in blending those elements at Inside Out Landscape Design, where you'll work with Kentucky's only APLD Certified Landscape Designer to create an outdoor space that encourages connection with family and nature alike. It's everything you love about the outdoors (the sun and the shade, the beautiful plants, the fresh air) and everything you need in a Louisville, Kentucky home (usable space where people can get together over dinner, coffee, or conversation).Â
With years of experience in Central Kentucky, we've had the privilege of working on landscaping projects of all sizes, for all purposes. Contact us to learn more about our seamless, collaborative design process and to schedule a consultation.
Beautiful Landscapes and Happy Clients in Central Kentucky
Your Partner in Landscaping
There are five core values that shape our business and our personal lives. Every decision we make with and for our Louisville, KY clients has its foundation in these values, and through them, we create long-lasting relationships and world-class landscapes:
First-Class Service:
With prompt communication and in-depth collaboration, our high-trained and qualified professionals are dedicated to your project. We're here to answer your questions as we enhance your landscaping.
Pride in Craftsmanship:
We only do work we're proud to put our name on, which means every decision—from design to plant and material selection to the installation process—is made carefully. We have a passion for sustainable landscaping, and that passion shines through in every satisfied client and magazine-worthy landscape.
Grow and Glow:
We want you to love outdoor living as much as we do! Our team is always learning new techniques and trends that allow us to deliver the best possible results for you.
Enrich Lives:
If we can make your day a little better, we've done our job. It's something we strive for with our clients, our team members, and our entire community, which leads up to seek ongoing training and education, balance our work and personal lives, and shape an eco-conscious business model for the good of the environment.Â
Ecocentric:
Mother Nature will always have her way, and everyone wins when we work within her guidelines. To that end, we choose techniques and materials that enhance the planet and create outdoor spaces that need little in terms of time, money, and maintenance.
Our Recent Work
We treat our clients—and each outdoor space—like the individuals you are. The result is a unique landscaping design that enhances your existing architecture and takes your lifestyle into consideration. Take a look at some of our landscape transformations, each completed with different challenges and under different budgets:
A Simple and Enjoyable Process for Creating Beautiful Landscapes
Working with us is simple. We follow a transparent process so you know exactly what to expect each step of the way, and we stay in communication with you as we go. Don't hesitate to reach out with your questions at any time:
Complete the Questionnaire
In less than 10 minutes, you can answer a few questions (and even upload a few photos, plats, house plans, survey, etc.!) to help us get to know your landscaping challenges, aspirations, and preferences.
Schedule Consultation
It's time for a walk-through of your outdoor space, so we can see it and get more information about what you'd like! Our in-person consultations range from $150-300+ (depending on your location).
Sign the Design Agreement + Down Payment
Within 24 hours of your consultation, we will send you the agreement. These are priced at a flat rate based on your existing site and the complexity of the design, with simple designs starting around $1,500, full site plans for large properties ranging $5-10,000+. Extensive outdoor space projects (our specialty and majority of our projects) are a $5,000 minimum design fee. The Design Phase will begin as soon as we receive your signed agreement and deposit, both of which can be done online.
If your project doesn't need a design, you'll get an estimate within one week of your consultation.
Enter the Design Phase
Design support staff will measure and evaluate the site and will reach out to you to arrange the best time to do this. They pass that information on to our designers, who get to work on your design. For especially large projects, the designer may be in touch throughout the process to see what you think of the concepts. You'll receive the final concept for review before we estimate the cost of the project.
Attend The Presentation Meeting
It's so exciting to see your ideas come to life! You'll have the information you need to envision the completed project, including all the details, plant photos, and more. The Construction Agreement will be created once the design is approved, is customized for your property, and we aim to be as detailed as possible, which allows us to offer an accurate estimate.
Sign the Construction Agreement, Initial Payment
After we've finalized the scope of the work, you can electronically sign an agreement to the terms of payment.Â
You'll hear from us to schedule an approximate start date, and we'll send you a detailed production email with the next steps.
We'll Get Started!
We'll coordinate everything—you can simply sit back, relax, and eagerly await the completion of your revamped outdoor space!
We'll touch base with you the week before your start date, and the crew will call you when they're on the way to the site on the first day of work.Â
Final Walk-Through
Your satisfaction is our priority, so a foreman or manager will walk through the project with you (if you’re available) before we leave the site. If there are any issues, please give us an opportunity to fix them. We would love you to leave us an online review with your feedback!
