If you’re planning a landscape project—whether for your home, HOA, or commercial property—you’re likely facing the same challenge: turning a vision in your head into a buildable, cohesive design that actually reflects your style and functions beautifully in everyday life. Many designers create beautiful plans, but not all understand drainage, grading, plant behavior, traffic flow, or how construction teams actually build. That disconnect leads to expensive delays, mismatched expectations, or designs that simply won’t work on your site. Myatt eliminates that gap entirely. With more than 30 years of experience, our in-house landscape designers and construction teams work side by side to develop thoughtful, build-ready plans that translate into stunning, long-lasting outdoor spaces.

The Myatt Design Philosophy: Custom, Thoughtful, Build-Ready

At Myatt, design is never a separate department or an outsourced step. It’s fully integrated into our construction and maintenance teams, ensuring seamless communication from the first sketch to the final plant install.

Our approach focuses on:

  • Understanding your lifestyle, aesthetic, and vision
  • Honoring the architecture of your home or building
  • Using the natural features of the property to guide the design
  • Balancing beauty with long-term practicality
  • Creating solutions tailored to the Triangle’s climate and soils
  • Building designs that can actually be constructed—without change orders and surprises

Every design is grounded in both artistry and functionality.
