[About Our Luxury Landscape Design Company]
We Design For The Way You Live.
At Sol & Arbor, luxury landscape design is more than aesthetics—it’s about creating spaces that feel effortless, personal, and enduring. We design with intention, blending luxury with livability to craft front yards, backyards, and outdoor rooms that look beautiful and work beautifully for everyday life.
Our philosophy is rooted in timeless design principles, but we’re never stuck in the past. We track evolving trends in architecture, materials, and outdoor living to bring fresh thinking to every project—without chasing fads or sacrificing elegance. Whether it’s a modern estate entryway or a lush garden retreat, our work reflects a refined point of view and a deep respect for your home’s architecture and setting.
From native plant palettes to water-wise layouts, sustainability is built into our process—not added as an afterthought. Every design is tailored to the unique climate, soil, and lifestyle needs of the property, ensuring each space thrives in both form and function.
We don’t just design landscapes—we shape outdoor experiences that last.
[Our Story]
From Florida Roots to National Reach in Luxury Landscape Design
Sol & Arbor began with a clear vision: to elevate the outdoor living experience through thoughtful, climate-conscious landscape design. Founded in Florida, our work has always been shaped by the region’s unique environment—demanding beauty that lasts, design that adapts, and materials that thrive in heat, humidity, and storms.

Today, we offer virtual landscape design services nationwide—bringing our tailored, elevated approach to properties from coast to coast.
Our mission remains simple:
To design outdoor spaces that feel as considered and curated as the interiors they connect to—spaces that invite you outside, support how you live, and age with grace
Every Inch Considered. Every Detail Elevated.
Whether it’s a grand front entrance, a hidden side yard, or a sweeping backyard retreat, every Sol & Arbor design is crafted to be both artful and deeply functional.
[Where We Design]

Deep Knowledge. Lasting Results.
We built our reputation designing for Florida’s unique challenges—salt air, sandy soils, and subtropical storms. From Palm Beach estates to coastal retreats, we craft landscapes that thrive in the climate we know best.

Lush, Layered, and Locally Inspired.
From the Carolinas to the Gulf Coast, our Southeast designs blend gracious architecture with verdant native plantings and low-maintenance materials tailored to each microclimate.

Tailored Plans, Wherever You Are.
Whether you’re in the desert, mountains, or plains, our design process adapts to your environment and preferences. We offer fully remote or hybrid services with custom concepts fit for your
Our roots are in Florida—but our reach is far beyond it.
Sol & Arbor’s design philosophy was shaped by the rhythms of Florida living: lush native flora, coastal soil conditions, and a subtropical climate that demands both beauty and resilience. We understand how to work with the region’s unique elements to create outdoor spaces that thrive year-round—from salt-tolerant plantings to heat-conscious layouts and water-wise design.
That foundation travels well.
Today, we design for clients across the country, offering custom landscape plans tailored to a wide range of climates and settings. From desert-modern estates in the Southwest to woodland retreats in the Pacific Northwest, each plan is adapted with regional materials, plant palettes, and architectural compatibility in mind. Whether we’re working virtually or onsite, we bring a Florida-born attention to detail, layered with local nuance.
Because great landscape design isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s rooted in place. And we make sure yours is, too.
FAQs
You ask, we answer
If you’re unsure about anything, this is the place to get clarity.
What makes Sol & Arbor different from other luxury landscape design firms?
At Sol & Arbor, we don’t just design landscapes—we craft outdoor spaces that are tailored, timeless, and truly livable. With over 35 years of experience in high-end landscape design, estate-level planning, and climate-specific horticulture, our team brings deep-rooted expertise to every project.
One of the key differences? We only work with experienced landscape designers—and we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every project is matched with a lead designer whose expertise aligns with the region, climate, and aesthetic goals of that specific site. That means if your property is located in Florida, you’ll be paired with a designer who understands the nuances of native flora, humidity, and hurricane-hardened materials. If you’re envisioning a modern, minimalist front yard or a lush Mediterranean retreat, we’ll assign a designer with a proven track record in that style.
While other firms might rely on templates or cookie-cutter plans, we take a highly personalized and collaborative approach—blending timeless design principles with current outdoor living trends to create spaces that are both stunning and smart. Whether it’s a grand entryway, a sustainable no-lawn yard, or a fully programmed backyard retreat, we focus on form, function, and long-term performance.
Sol & Arbor isn’t just a name—it’s a legacy of thoughtful design, built on decades of doing things the right way.
Do you only work on properties in Florida?
While we are proudly based in Florida and bring deep regional expertise in Florida landscape design, our services extend well beyond the Sunshine State. Sol & Arbor offers national landscaping services tailored to regional climates and design preferences—from the lush Southeast to the arid Southwest.
Our design team has worked on properties across the U.S., adapting each custom plan to local building codes, seasonal cycles, and native materials. Whether you’re located in the Carolinas, Texas, California, or New England, we bring the same level of sophistication and site-specific strategy to every project. Through our hybrid and virtual landscape design options, we’re able to collaborate with clients coast to coast, ensuring distance is never a limitation to great design.
What is your design philosophy?
Our design philosophy centers on three pillars: luxury, livability, and local adaptation. At Sol & Arbor, we believe outdoor spaces should be as beautiful as they are functional. That means blending high-end finishes and tailored layouts with smart flow, climate-aware planting, and enduring materials.
We avoid fleeting trends and instead focus on crafting timeless outdoor environments that enhance your home’s architecture and reflect your lifestyle. Whether it’s a low-maintenance front yard that makes a bold first impression or an expansive backyard retreat with layered lighting and multiple lounge zones, our work is grounded in both aesthetic intention and real-world performance.
Sustainability is also central to how we design. We use native and climate-appropriate plants, water-wise layouts, and regionally sourced hardscaping whenever possible—minimizing maintenance and maximizing environmental impact. Simply put, we don’t just create landscapes. We craft outdoor experiences designed to evolve with you.
Can I work with Sol & Arbor remotely?
Yes—our virtual landscape design services are built to serve clients no matter where they live. Whether you’re across the state or across the country, you’ll receive the same personalized design process, detailed deliverables, and white-glove support as our in-person clients.
Our remote model begins with a comprehensive digital intake and property analysis. We use high-resolution mapping tools, climate data, and client-provided media (photos, videos, measurements) to understand your space. From there, we develop a custom concept package that includes detailed layout plans, plant palettes, hardscape recommendations, and optional photorealistic renderings or mood boards.
You’ll collaborate with our designers via virtual meetings, email, and shared project boards. And because we know outdoor projects often involve multiple vendors, we provide clear documentation your local contractor can easily execute. Whether you’re planning your landscape in Florida or afar, we make remote design easy, accessible, and just as refined as any on-site experience.
What type of clients or properties do you typically work with?
Sol & Arbor specializes in high-end residential projects, including estate homes, luxury new builds, coastal properties, and custom renovations. Our ideal clients value thoughtful design, site specificity, and elevated outdoor living. Whether you’re creating a resort-style backyard, enhancing front yard curb appeal, or designing a landscape from the ground up, we bring deep expertise and artistic vision to every scale.
While our portfolio includes many Florida-based landscaping projects, we also serve clients across the U.S. seeking sophisticated, site-responsive designs. Many of our clients are homeowners, builders, or architects looking for a design partner who can create something tailored—not templated. From gated communities to expansive rural properties, we approach each space with fresh perspective, high standards, and a collaborative mindset.
What does the Sol & Arbor landscape design process look like?
At Sol & Arbor, our entire process is designed to be seamless, remote, and highly personalized—so you can achieve exceptional landscape design without ever needing an in-person visit.
We begin with an in-depth virtual consultation, where we learn about your property, aesthetic preferences, lifestyle needs, and goals for the space. From there, we assign a lead designer with specific expertise in your regional climate or design style—ensuring your plan is both beautiful and practical for your environment.
Using high-resolution satellite imagery, site photos, videos, and measurements you provide, we craft a fully customized landscape design plan that includes:
Scaled layouts and functional zones
Planting palettes tailored to your location
Hardscape recommendations
Lighting, privacy features, and drainage strategy
Optional mood boards or 3D visualizations
You’ll review and collaborate with your designer virtually at key milestones, ensuring the final plan reflects your vision down to the details. Once your design is complete, we provide a builder-ready package that your local contractor or installer can implement confidently.
Our remote process makes high-end, custom landscape design accessible—wherever you live, and without compromise.
