See the outcome before you pay for the install.

Landscape designs and visuals created outside of installer incentives. Proximity designs realistic landscapes around your actual home so you can see the outcome before labor and contractor costs lock you in.

Designed by Michael Paynotta — landscaping since 2011, prior installation business owner. No installation tie-in.

For homeowners

See whether a design actually fits your taste, scale, and budget before committing.

For installers

Use Proximity as a design layer that helps clients visualize the outcome before the job starts.

Two ways to get landscape clarity

Start with a quick visual to see a direction, or move into a full design when the layout needs to be planned out.

Photo concept

See a clear direction before you commit.

Best for homeowners who want to test an idea, compare a direction, or stop guessing before they pay to install something they may not like.

  • Built directly from your property
  • Nothing about your home is changed
  • See if it works before you spend money on it

Plan the layout before anything gets built.

Best for larger projects, full-property redesigns, or situations where circulation, plant spacing, and long-term structure matter.

  • Multiple views instead of one hero image
  • Useful for layout, function, and phased planning
  • Every part of the space is modeled in 3D

Examples

The goal is simple — help you understand what you’re getting before you pay for it.

Another concept

See a finished direction before deposits or material costs.

3D planning for full layout design

Better when the project needs a full property redesign, not just a visual concept over a single photo.

Independent design

Proximity is not tied to installation, product markups, or upsells. The design is the service.

Built with real landscape installer experience

Design is anchored to your actual house, hardscape, and layout constraints instead of generic inspiration photos.

Helpful before spending

Good design reduces costly second-guessing, mismatched scope, and “let’s just see what happens” installs.

No wasted install

Good design eliminates the “let’s just see what happens” install that costs twice as much to fix.

How it works

Send photos, get a design built around your actual property, and make a better decision before anything gets installed.

1

Send photos

Send clear photos of the area and a short note about what feels wrong, unfinished, or worth improving.

2

Design built around your space

The design is built from your photos and property constraints — not a template.

3

Visuals you can act on

Use the result to move forward confidently, compare directions, phase the work, or simply avoid a costly install you would have regretted.

“Form follows function.”
— Louis Sullivan

Start with the photo you already have

Send photos and a short note about what you want changed. You do not need a finished plan before reaching out.

Landscape design only. No installation. No product sales. No contractor pressure.
