Design your own garden.On your own plot.
Type your address and your plot appears, to scale. You lay out the paving, wood, water, trees and plants. The app keeps count: every square metre and every plant goes on your materials list.
From address to garden design in three steps.
Type your address
Your plot and your house appear to scale straight away. No measuring.
Design your garden
You place a terrace, lawn, borders and plants and move them until it is right. The app shows where sun and shade fall, and you can work out your garden's sun hours right now.
Download your garden design
You download your garden design to scale, with a materials list of what you drew: paving, soil and plants. For yourself, or for your landscaper.
A plan a landscaper can work from.
A landscaper (hovenier) who can see your dimensions, your paving and your plants does not have to guess. Ask for several quotes and they all price the same plan. Build it yourself, and the materials list is your shopping list.
- A plan to scale
- A PDF to print or an image, with a north arrow and a scale bar.
- A materials list
- Paving, soil, sand and gravel in the units a Dutch supplier sells them in.
- Files for a professional
- Your landscaper or designer opens your plan in their own drawing software, with the dimensions of your plot in it.
What you may be wondering
Where the data comes from, what your landscaper can do with it, and where your design is kept.
How does the app know what my garden looks like?
Your plot comes from the Dutch land registry, with its real boundaries. The shape and height of your house and the houses around it come from public national data. Everything you draw after that sits to scale on that real data.
Can my landscaper work with this?
Yes. You export your plan as a PDF to scale, or as DXF, the file a landscaper or designer opens in their drawing software. Dimensions, plot boundaries and the outline of your house are included, and so is the materials list.
I am not a designer. Can I do this?
You do not need to be able to draw. You pick a surface or a plant and place it on your plot. The app keeps track of the measurements and warns you when a plant gets too little or too much sun in that spot.
Does it work for my address?
For almost every address in the Netherlands. The data covers the whole country. It does not work outside the Netherlands.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. The design tool runs in the browser on your phone, tablet or computer. There is nothing to install.
Where is my design kept?
In your own browser, on the device you draw on. You need no account, and there is no copy on our servers. Open the site on another computer or phone and your design is not there.
