Freelance Landscape Architect with 8+ years of experience and a bachelor's degree in Landscape Architecture from one of the nations best Cal Poly San Luis Obispo's program. I am also a registered in the state of California PLA #6726 with the ability to stamp drawings for professional use. I specialize in sustainable, functional, and visually striking outdoor spaces—from residential gardens and rooftop terraces to commercial landscapes and public parks. My designs prioritize eco-friendly solutions like native plants, drought-tolerant planting, and rainwater harvesting to create beautiful, low-maintenance environments. Using tools such as AutoCAD, LandFX, SketchUp, Lumion, and Photoshop, I deliver detailed site plans, planting and hardscape layouts, irrigation designs, and photorealistic 3D renderings. I work closely with clients and architects to translate their vision into custom tailored, budget-conscious designs that perfectly suit the site and style. Clear communication, fast revisions, and client satisfaction are my top priorities. Let’s bring your outdoor project to life—message me to discuss your ideas or view my portfolio!

I am an architect and landscape designer - passionate about creating spaces that connect people, nature, and function. From 2D plans and 3D visuals to full concept design - I offer thoughtful, sustainable solutions for both architecture and outdoor environments. Let us design spaces that matter.

I design 3D, contractor‑ready plans informed by 20 years of hands‑on construction — so you avoid costly mistakes and build with confidence. Need answers fast? Book a 45–60 min Strategy Call ($150) or send 2–4 photos for a free 48‑hour photo review. Most clients redesign their landscape once in a lifetime — they want it done right. Not guessed at. Not rushed. Not turned into a pretty picture nobody can build. I grew up on my parents’ 5-acre property helping with ponds, retaining walls, concrete, outdoor lighting, planting, and maintenance. At 18, I co-founded a lawn-care business that grew into a full-service landscaping company in 2006. Over the years, our projects expanded into patios, driveways, large-scale planting plans, outdoor living areas, fire pits, kitchens, water features, drainage, grading, lighting, and long-term landscape maintenance. That field experience matters. It taught me what actually works on site, what causes problems during installation, and what contractors need from a plan. After relocating to Brazil in 2021, I shifted my focus fully into landscape design and sharpened my 3D planning process. Today, I combine hands-on construction knowledge with 3D design so homeowners get clear, buildable plans contractors can actually use. What I help with: ✓ 3D, buildable landscape plans contractors can use to price and build with confidence ✓ Site-specific planting plans tailored to your region and maintenance goals ✓ Patio, walkway, and outdoor living layouts that balance form and function ✓ Lighting and material planning to match aesthetics and performance ✓ Contractor guidance and installation clarity to avoid costly surprises ✓ Practical design decisions before money is spent on construction Clients have said: 🪴 “His 3D renderings became the go-to reference for various contractors.” 🪴 “He wanted to know what WE wanted… and he listened.” 🪴 “Professional, prompt, and exceeded expectations.” I may be a good fit if you’re thinking: “This is my forever home and I want it done right.” “My business needs a better first impression.” “I’m not a landscape expert, and I don’t want to guess.” “The last landscape we did was embarrassing — never again.” Send me a message with 3–6 site photos, inspiration images, your goals, location, and — if you’re comfortable — a rough budget. I’ll review everything and reply with what I think the best next step is. — Mario Ps.
