Transforming Backyards into Luxury Retreats: Our Design Process Explained
Imagine stepping into a backyard that feels like a five-star retreat—crafted just for you, rooted in the rhythm of your life and the spirit of the Sonoran landscape. At Shearon Design Collective, this isn’t just a dream—it’s our everyday work.
Our design process blends structure and soul, giving clients intentional, elevated outdoor spaces that truly live like extensions of their homes.
Why Process Matters in Luxury Landscape Design
Great design doesn’t happen by accident. In high-end residential projects, a clear, proven process ensures that the results aren’t just beautiful—they’re livable, lasting, and logistically seamless.
Our process brings confidence to our clients, clarity to collaborators, and cohesion across every square foot.
You’re not just hiring a designer—you’re gaining a guide.
Our Process, Step by Step
1. Discovery + Consultation
We begin with a conversation—understanding your goals, timeline, budget, and lifestyle.
2. Site Walk + Style Alignment
We visit the property to observe scale, elevation, sun patterns, and contextual cues.
3. Concept Design
Big ideas start taking shape: layout plans, spatial flow, and signature features.
4. Design Development
We refine materials, lighting, planting palettes, and align with any architectural plans.
5. Final Construction Plans
We deliver technical documents for HOA submittals, permits, and contractor execution.
6. Oversight & Concierge Services (Optional)
We remain involved to ensure execution matches intent—because every detail matters.
Collaboration with Architects & Builders
“We’ve built our reputation on being responsive, thoughtful collaborators—not just designers. We speak your language, anticipate site needs, and care about the full vision.”
Shearon Design Collective regularly partners with architects and builders to ensure the outdoor experience is as refined and intentional as the home itself.
