Home Outside pricing breakdown

Package	Price	What is included
Consultation tier	~$100 to $500	Designer review of your photos and goals with written guidance on layout and planting direction, rather than a documented plan.
Concept and design package	~$500 to $3,000+	A developed concept for the space with planting and layout guidance, scaled to the size and complexity of the property.

Prices are approximate and change over time. Always confirm current pricing on Home Outside's own site.

What drives the price up or down

•Whether you want a consultation or a developed design concept.
•The size of the property and how many areas are in scope.
•Site complexity, since slopes, drainage, and awkward access all add design time.
•How much revision and follow-up you want included.

The cheaper first step

If what you want first is to see the possibilities rather than to receive professional guidance, an AI redesign is the cheaper starting point. AI Garden Design costs $19/month (yearly) with unlimited photorealistic redesigns of your own photo. Arriving at a consultation with two or three images you already like also tends to make the paid time more productive.

Home Outside cost, common questions

How much does Home Outside cost?

Consultation tiers generally start in the low hundreds, and fuller concept and design packages commonly run from several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on property size and complexity. Check current tier pricing before comparing, as it changes.

Is Home Outside cheaper than Yardzen or ShrubHub?

Its consultation tiers usually start lower than a full Yardzen package, which is much of its appeal. Full design packages close that gap, so the honest comparison is tier against tier rather than brand against brand.

Is a design consultation worth paying for?

It is if your space has real constraints — slope, drainage, poor access, awkward proportions — where judgement matters more than style. If you mainly want to know what a look would do for your garden, a $19 to $69 per month AI tool answers that far more cheaply.
