Modern Sustainable Landscape Design in Santa Monica
Santa Monica's urban character, coastal air, and progressive environmental culture call for landscape design that is modern, clean, and genuinely sustainable — not just aesthetically minimal, but ecologically responsible. Natural Art works throughout Santa Monica's residential neighborhoods designing gardens that align with the city's conservation values and the California lifestyle.
Our Santa Monica landscape work leans toward modern drought-tolerant design, productive edible gardens, and efficient smart irrigation systems that align with the city's tiered water rate structure and conservation goals. We work with single-family homes, multi-unit properties, and larger estate gardens — bringing the same commitment to craftsmanship and environmental integrity to every project size.

Common Questions About Landscaping in Santa Monica
Does Natural Art work with Santa Monica's water conservation programs?
Yes. We're familiar with Santa Monica Water's rebate programs for turf removal and efficient irrigation installation. We can help you navigate available incentives and design a landscape that qualifies.
Can you design a productive vegetable garden in Santa Monica?
Absolutely. Edible garden integration is a specialty — we design kitchen gardens and food-producing landscapes that are as beautiful as they are functional, from raised beds to integrated fruit tree orchards.
What drought-tolerant plants work in Santa Monica?
Santa Monica's coastal climate supports Mediterranean species like Lavender, Rosemary, and Cistus alongside California natives like Salvia, Agave, and ornamental grasses — all highly drought-tolerant and suited to the marine layer and occasional Santa Ana winds.
