3D Landscape Design in Winnipeg
Your project rendered on your own lot, with your house and your property lines, before anything is dug.
The hardest part of committing to an outdoor project is that you cannot see it. You are looking at a quote, a few sample pavers and somebody’s description, and being asked to approve something that will be permanent in three weeks.
We render the project in 3D on your actual property first.
On Your Lot, Not a Template
The model is built from measurements of your property, with your house, your grade, your fence lines and your neighbours’ rooflines where they matter. It is not a stock image of a patio with your name on it.
That matters because the questions people actually have are specific to their yard. Does the patio feel cramped against that wall. Does the deck block the kitchen window. Does the step down to the lawn look awkward where the ground falls away. Those are answerable from a render and very difficult to answer from a plan view and a price.
Where It Earns Its Place
Projects with several elements. A patio, a retaining wall, steps and a fence all have to work together. Seeing them separately on a quote tells you very little about whether they will.
Sites with elevation change. Grade is the hardest thing to picture. A render shows how the levels actually resolve and whether the steps land where you would want to walk.
Material decisions. Paver format and colour look different at full scale in a real space than they do as a sample in your hand. Swapping them in the model takes minutes.
Anything you are nervous about. If you are uncertain, that is the strongest argument for seeing it first.
Where It Does Not
A single fence line. A small square patio. A sod replacement. These do not need rendering and we are not going to invent design work that does not help you decide.
Changing Your Mind Is the Feature
Moving a patio edge on screen costs nothing. Moving it after the base has been excavated and compacted costs real money and real time.
Most people change something once they see it, and that is the process working rather than a sign anything went wrong. The renders exist so the changes happen at the cheap end of the project rather than the expensive one.
What You Get
A set of views of the finished project on your property, showing layout, materials, elevations and how the spaces connect. Enough to make a decision with, and enough to know what you are buying before the written estimate gets signed.
Then the scope goes in writing, and what gets built is what you approved.
What's Included
- Rendered on your actual property, not a generic template
- Materials and layout changed on screen, not on site
- Shows elevation changes and how spaces connect
- Especially useful on larger or more complex transformations

3D Landscape Design Questions
What does the 3D design cost?
Ask us when we come out, because it depends on the scope of the project. What we can say is that 3D planning earns its place on larger or more complex transformations, and on a single fence line or a small patio it does not, so we will tell you honestly which one you have.
How accurate is the rendering compared to the finished result?
Layout, proportions, elevation changes and material choices are accurate, because they are drawn from measurements of your property. Lighting and planting maturity are representations rather than promises, since a render shows plants at a size they will take a few seasons to reach.
Can I change things after seeing it?
That is the entire point. Moving a patio edge, changing paver colour or reshaping a bed costs nothing on screen and is expensive once the base is compacted. Most people change something, and the ones who change several things get the most value out of it.
Do I need a design if I just want a fence?
No. A single fence line or a small patio does not need rendering, and we would not charge you for effort that does not help you decide. It earns its place when a project has several elements that have to work together, or when a grade change makes the finished result hard to picture.
