Luxury Landscape & Pool Design-Build

Cool ground in
a hot city.

Verdemar brings gardens, pools and outdoor spaces together with a calm, practical approach to design and care.

Garden landscaping services built for villas and compounds

Outdoor spaces shaped by climate, place and the way you live.

Sun, shade, soil and water all shape a garden. Our approach begins with the character of the site, then brings planting, paving and water together in a considered plan.

From a sheltered courtyard to a generous poolside garden, the aim is a place that feels comfortable to use and rewarding to care for.

What we do

Complete landscape services
for luxury estates

01

Villa garden design & planning

Masterplan and planting layouts drawn around your space, your lifestyle and the way the sun moves across your plot. Every design is engineered for climate resilience first — beauty follows.

02

Hard landscaping

Paving, tiling, walkways, seating and shade structures laid by master masons who build them to endure all seasons — not just to photograph well.

03

Soft landscaping

Lawns, shrubs, ground cover and seasonal planting chosen for health and drought tolerance, suited to the site and its conditions.

04

Swimming pools & water features

Infinity, lap, plunge and family pools, considered alongside the surrounding landscape, with fountains and rills where the design calls for water in motion.

05

Smart irrigation systems

Automated irrigation tuned to soil type and season, watering the garden only when and where it needs it — with attention to efficient water use.

06

Maintenance & aftercare

Weekly and bi-weekly garden and pool care that keeps the system working as designed — pruning, feeding, cleaning and monitoring, tailored to the needs of the space.

How we work

Four moves, in order

A design-build process that gives you certainty — about cost, about timeline, and about who is accountable.

  1. Consultation

    We walk your plot, take soil and shade readings, and listen to how you want to live outdoors.

  2. Design

    Drawings, planting plans and a clear scope help guide the next decisions.

  3. Execution

    Our own masons, electricians and landscapers build it — no subcontractor roulette, no ghost crews.

  4. Ongoing care

    Maintenance keeps the garden and pool performing as designed, year after year.

Our approach

A garden that feels at home.

Good outdoor spaces balance shade and sun, structure and softness, beauty and the practicalities of care. Each design begins with the site and the people who use it.

Courtyard garden

“We had a small courtyard that we hardly used. The planting and seating now make it somewhere we want to sit, even just for a morning coffee.”
Amelia C.

Garden redesign

“They worked with the trees we wanted to keep and helped us choose materials that suited the house. The garden feels connected to the home rather than added on.”
Ben & Lucy

Planting and aftercare

“I liked that the conversation included looking after the garden, not just how it would look on day one. The care notes have been genuinely useful.”
Thomas J.

Planning a project

Start with the essentials.

Scope, materials, access and approvals all shape a landscape budget. A useful brief brings together your priorities, an indicative budget and the way you hope to use the space.
