Landscape Architecture Drawing Services in Los Angeles

Landscape architecture drawing services in Los Angeles for landscape architects, architects, contractors and homeowners. We measure the existing site and draft base plans, planting, hardscape, irrigation and grading drawings in AutoCAD, prepared for review and permit submittal.

Site Documentation & Base Plans

Field-measured existing conditions with structures, paving, walls, trees and utilities visible on the site.

Before any landscape design can begin, you need an accurate record of existing site conditions. We measure and document your property — building footprint, property lines, setbacks, existing hardscape, existing plantings, drainage patterns, utility locations, and grade changes — producing a complete existing conditions base plan in AutoCAD that gives your landscape designer a reliable foundation to work from.

Landscaping Plan

A clear landscaping plan showing proposed layout, beds, lawn areas and hardscape, drafted from your design or sketches

A landscape design plan documents the complete proposed landscape scope — planting layout, hardscape design, lawn areas, ground cover, mulch zones, decorative rock, and all landscape elements — drawn to scale and dimensioned for contractor installation.

Planting Plans

Planting plans with plant locations, symbols and schedules, coordinated with the base plan.

A planting plan documents every plant specified for the project — botanical name, common name, container size, spacing, and quantity — laid out to scale within the landscape design.
