How to create your landscape design easily

Arcadium makes landscape planning effortless. From blank canvas to photorealistic visualization, here's how to design your outdoor space step by step.

Step 1: Set up your property

Start by outlining your outdoor area. Use Arcadium's shape and terrain tools to draw property boundaries, mark building footprints, and define existing features like driveways or mature trees. This creates an accurate base for your entire design.

Step 2: Build your hardscape

Add the structural elements that define your space. Design patios with custom shapes, lay out stone pathways, position retaining walls, install fencing, and create deck areas. Select materials for each element and adjust dimensions to match real-world measurements.

Step 3: Add plants & greenery

Browse Arcadium's library of trees, shrubs, flowers, hedges, and ground covers. Drag plants directly onto your layout and resize them to reflect mature growth or current size. Group plantings into beds, borders, or specimen placements.

Step 4: Place furniture & features

Complete your outdoor living areas with furniture, pergolas, fire pits, water features, outdoor lighting, and decorative accessories. Position dining sets on patios, loungers by pools, and planters along walkways.

Step 5: Walk through in first-person view

Switch to Arcadium's first-person mode and explore your design at ground level. Check sightlines from seating areas, evaluate spacing between elements, and experience how enclosed or open different zones feel.

Step 6: Generate & share visualizations

Create AI-powered photorealistic renders showing your finished landscape. Export 2D plan views as printable PDFs for contractors. Share your interactive 3D design instantly via URL, no file downloads required.
