what we do
Custom Landscape Design Services
At Ideal Touch, we create custom landscape designs tailored to Seattle’s unique climate and your personal style. With over 12 years of experience in the Pacific Northwest, our design team works closely with you to transform your outdoor vision into a detailed, buildable plan that maximizes beauty, function, and long-term value.
Our landscape design process begins with an on-site consultation where we assess your property, discuss your goals, and understand your lifestyle. We then create detailed 2D and 3D renderings so you can visualize the final result before any ground is broken. Every design considers drainage, sun exposure, soil conditions, and the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

We specialize in selecting plants that thrive in Seattle’s maritime climate. From native ferns and evergreens to drought-tolerant ornamentals, we choose species that provide year-round color and texture while requiring minimal maintenance. Our plant palettes are designed to support local pollinators and biodiversity.
