About SCAPES
Built by Landscapers, for Landscapers
SCAPES was created by a team of career landscape professionals who have spent years in the field - designing, selling, building, and running successful landscape businesses.
We know firsthand what it takes to win jobs, manage crews, and keep projects moving. We’ve lived the challenges of tight timelines, overloaded schedules, and trying to balance design work with everything else it takes to run a growing company.
That experience is exactly what led us to build SCAPES.
Real People. Real Experience. Real Landscape Design Support.
At SCAPES, we help landscape companies across the United States design better projects, close more deals, and scale without the overhead of an in-house design team.
We’re not just designers—we’re industry operators who understand the real challenges contractors face every day: tight timelines, inconsistent design quality, and the constant pressure to win work while managing production.
That’s exactly why SCAPES exists.

Our Core Values
Professionalism Always
As landscaping professionals, we know our task and treat all customers and team members respectfully. That respect extends to showing respect for others’ time by responding promptly to all communications.
A Culture of Caring
The concept is simple: keep our team members happy, and they will, in turn, keep our customers happy. We treat all team members as equals. We invest in employees and their surroundings. We empower each designer to make independent decisions. We celebrate the little things and have fun along the way. We care about the natural environment and commit to acting responsibly to protect it.
Excellence Everywhere
We will never sacrifice quality or settle for second-best. We adhere to industry standards and best practices and continue to challenge ourselves to find a better way.
