Landscape design covers the whole lot: the front yard people see from the street, the backyard you use, the strip down the side, and the hard surfaces that connect them. This tool works on any of those from a single photo. It is a visual tool. It shows you a direction, and it does not draw a plan to scale.

What is free, and what is paid

A free account gets 3 designs. They are watermarked and at preview resolution, and no credit card is asked for. The garden design advice tool needs no account at all: upload a photo and get a written critique.

Landscape decisions you can test before paying anyone

Front yard curb appeal

Foundation planting, a wider path to the door, lighting, and a lawn that ends at a clean edge instead of running to the sidewalk.

Lawn reduction

Replace part or all of the lawn with gravel, groundcover, meadow planting or a patio, and compare the look of each on the same photo.

Hardscape materials

Concrete, flagstone, brick, pavers, decomposed granite or decking on the same footprint.

Planting structure

Hedges, specimen trees, layered borders, or a sparse dry garden. The style you pick sets the plant palette.

Slopes and levels

Terracing and retaining walls rendered on a sloped yard, as a picture of the idea rather than an engineered wall.

Night lighting

Path lights, uplighting on trees and string lights, generated as an evening scene.

Which tool to use for which yard

Most landscape photos go through Transform: the yard exists and you want it restyled. A bare lot or a new build goes through Empty Backyard, which fills the space instead of restyling what is there.

When only one thing is wrong, Replace or Remove changes a single element (an old shed, a dead hedge) and leaves the rest alone. Style Reference copies the look of a photo you already like onto your yard.

What AI landscape design does not do

It does not measure anything, so there is no scale plan, no grading, no drainage design and no plant quantities. Plants are chosen for the look and are not checked against your USDA zone; the hardiness zone finder and a local nursery settle that. It does not price the job either. The landscaping cost estimator gives a rough range from a photo, and a contractor gives the real number.

For landscape designers and contractors

Both paid plans include commercial use, so renders can go into client proposals. It fits the concept stage: show a client three directions on a photo of their own yard before anything is drawn to scale.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free AI landscape design tool?

Yes. Every account gets 3 free designs (watermarked, preview resolution) with no credit card, and the advice tool is free without an account. Other tools with free tiers are listed in the AI landscape tool comparison.

Does it work on front yards?

Yes. Take the photo from the street or the end of the driveway with the house in frame. The AI uses the house as the anchor and designs the planting and paths in front of it.

Can it replace a landscape architect?

For choosing a direction, often. For anything structural (grading, drainage, retaining walls, permits), no. Use the render as the brief you hand to the professional.

What photo works best?

One daylight photo from where you normally see the yard, wide enough to include part of the house or fence. More detail is in the photo upload guide.
