At Altera Landscaping, we believe outdoor spaces should feel as thoughtfully designed as the homes they surround.
We create landscape design in dana point that combine architecture, craftsmanship, and California’s natural beauty — transforming properties across Dana Point, Laguna Beach, and San Juan Capistrano into functional works of art.
Transform Your Outdoor Space into a Work of Art
Our approach to landscape design goes beyond aesthetics — it’s about purpose, structure, and flow.
Every project begins with a conversation about how you live, entertain, and relax outdoors.
We then translate your lifestyle into a design that blends seamlessly with your home’s architecture and the surrounding environment.
Our Landscape Design Process
We follow a design-build approach, ensuring creativity and construction quality work hand in hand.
Discovery & Consultation
We start by understanding your goals, budget, and site conditions — from views and lighting to soil and drainage.
Design Development
Our team creates custom 3D renderings so you can visualize your space before construction begins.
Every detail — materials, colors, plant selection — is planned with precision.
Construction & Implementation
Once approved, our build team executes the plan with craftsmanship and attention to detail, ensuring your project is delivered on time and beyond expectations.
The result is a landscape that feels organic, architectural, and distinctly yours.
