Hi, I’m a Certified Landscape Designer with over 20 years of professional experience designing residential outdoor spaces across North America. I help homeowners, builders, and contractors turn ideas into clear, buildable, approval-ready landscape plans—without guesswork, delays, or costly revisions. If you need more than a pretty concept—if you need a design that works in the real world, meets regulations, and can actually be built—you’re in the right place. How I Help My Clients I specialize in strategic landscape design that balances aesthetics, function, constructability, and compliance. My role is to think through the project the way a municipality, contractor, and client all would—so nothing gets missed. What sets my services apart: ✔️ Flat-Rate Design Packages (No Surprises) - I offer clear, flat-rate pricing so you know exactly what your design will cost upfront. This makes budgeting easier, eliminates hourly creep, and keeps projects focused on outcomes—not clock-watching. ✔️ Strategic Design Approach - I don’t just place plants and patios. I analyze site conditions, grading implications, circulation, zoning constraints, planting percentages, and construction realities. Every design decision is intentional and defensible. ✔️ Contractor-Ready 2D + 3D Deliverables - My drawings are scaled, dimensioned, and detailed for real-world installation—saving time, reducing RFIs, and minimizing costly field changes. My Expertise 🌿 Residential & Commercial Landscape Design 🌿 Site Planning & Approval Drawings 🌿 Planting Design (including native & municipal-compliant plans) 🌿 Hardscape, Pool & Outdoor Living Design 🌿 Construction Documentation 🌿 CAD Drafting (DynaSCAPE, AutoCAD) 🌿 3D Design & Rendering (SketchUp, Realtime Landscape Architect, UVision) With decades in the industry, I’ve worked directly with clients, builders, municipalities, and contractors, which means I anticipate problems before they become delays. Why Clients Hire Me (and Keep Hiring Me) ✔️ Time saved — clear drawings reduce back-and-forth and speed up approvals ✔️ Problems solved early — zoning, grading, and planting compliance handled upfront ✔️ Fewer revisions during construction — designs are realistic and buildable ✔️ Confidence — clients know their project is in experienced hands My work has been award-winning, featured in magazines, TV shows, HGTV, and showcased at Canada Blooms and the Royal Winter Fair. I’ve also taught CAD and landscape design to professionals across North America and developed curriculum for leading horticulture schools in Ontario—so I stay current, technical, and precise. Case Study: Approval-Ready Landscape Design for New Build Submission A recent client required a complete landscape plan for a new residential build as part of a municipal site plan application. The challenge wasn’t just aesthetics—the design needed to meet strict municipal criteria, including: Minimum planting coverage percentages * A required ratio of native and climate-appropriate species * Compliance with grading, access, and setback regulations * Alignment with the modern architectural language of the new home I developed a fully compliant planting and hardscape plan that satisfied municipal requirements without sacrificing design intent. Strategic plant layering allowed us to meet native species quotas, while material selections and layout reinforced the clean lines of the architecture. Result: ✔️ Site plan approved without redesign ✔️ No delays to the construction schedule ✔️ A cohesive landscape that enhanced—not fought—the architecture If You’re Looking For: A designer who understands approvals, not just aesthetics Clear, professional 2D and 3D drawings Flat-rate pricing with no surprises A calm, experienced professional who can lead your project Let’s talk. I’d love to help bring your outdoor vision to life—strategically, beautifully, and efficiently.

🏆 Top Rated Plus | Top 3% on Upwork 🏆 100% Job Success | 226 Projects Completed | $200K+ Earned I'm Moayad B | an Architect and Landscape Designer working with homeowners, contractors, and developers across the US and Canada. Most landscape work treats the yard as separate from the house. I don't. Trained as an architect, I read the whole property as one system — how the structure sits, where the light falls, how someone actually moves from the front door to the back fence. That's why my designs feel resolved rather than decorated. The work runs from a single backyard to estates in the $1M–$5M range and commercial sites up to 10 acres. Same standard either way: drawings a contractor can build from without calling you for clarification, and 3D renders detailed enough that you approve the design once instead of three times. I design to local code and permit requirements from the first sketch, not the last revision, so what you hand your architect of record or contractor is permit-ready, not a redraw. Clients tell me that's what keeps their projects moving.

Good design should make a business look clear, credible, and easy to remember. I’m a Canada-based designer working across branding, logo design, UI/UX, websites, and marketing materials. I help businesses turn rough ideas into polished, practical designs that are ready to use. My work covers: • Logo & Brand Identity • UI/UX Design & Figma • Website Design, WordPress, Shopify & Webflow • Social Media & Marketing Graphics • Brochures, Company Profiles & Pitch Decks • Packaging, Labels & Print Design • InDesign, Book Formatting, KDP & PDF Design I’m comfortable taking a project from the first concept through the final production files, whether it’s a new brand, a website, a marketing piece, or a complete visual system. I focus on clean layouts, strong typography, consistency, and details that make the final work feel professionally made rather than template-based. If you already have a direction, I can refine it. If you’re starting from scratch, I can help shape the visual direction and build it properly from the ground up.
