Get to know Alder Landscape Architecture

Landscape Architecture Company, Bay Area, CAAt Alder Landscape Architecture, we create thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces that balance beauty, functionality, and environmental responsibility. Led by licensed landscape architect Glenn Rogers, our San Francisco-based firm provides residential and commercial landscape architecture throughout the Bay Area. From private gardens to larger commercial properties, we develop customized designs that complement each property's architecture, natural surroundings, and intended use.

Custom Outdoor Living Spaces & Landscape Features

Our landscape architecture services include custom decks and arbors that enhance outdoor living areas and distinctive water features, including ponds, fountains, and waterfalls. We also design sustainable green roofs that introduce natural elements into urban settings. Each feature is carefully integrated into the overall landscape for a cohesive, functional design.

Landscape Restoration, Planning & Design

Our expertise extends to landscape restoration, incorporating native plants and environmentally sensitive design practices. Through detailed landscape plans and illustrations, we help clients visualize proposed improvements and understand how their outdoor spaces will function. Our approach considers site conditions, architectural features, and long-term landscape performance.

Frontyard

La Paz pebbles are one of the best materials to make exposed aggregate attractive.. This design is in a Japanese tradition with concrete pads separated by 4" voids with larger pebbles in between. The wall has a veneer of San Francisco cobble which lined the streets of old San Francisco historically and was provided by clipper ships requiring ballast as they made the difficult trip around Cape Horn, South America. A lead mask of a Lion Head is present to provide "white noise" into the fountain. A bench is present for guests that linger as they are returning homeand wish to enjoy the lovely setting.

Backyard

The backyard pool and spa are located next to the Master Bedroom. The closer a landscape feature is next to the house, the more likely it will be used. Water falls into the pool at a greater depth since the elevation of the patio leading from the Master Bedroom is higher than the backyard finish grade. Slate tile is used close to the spa and residence but returns to exposed aggregate around the perimeter of the pool.

The upcoming Custom Residential Issue of Landscape Architect and Specifier News saw many firms submit their projects for feature consideration. This project was not chosen for a Feature in the issue, but we at LandscapeArchitect.com thought the project deserved to be showcased online . . .
