Living Landscapes That Belong

At Monolith Landscape Design, we believe that the best plantings feel inevitable — like they’ve always been there. Every plant design we create is rooted in site-specific insight, aesthetic harmony, and ecological awareness.

Tree & Shrub Layouts

Sculptural, seasonal, and scaled to your property's unique character. We design layered plantings that provide structure, privacy, and visual interest throughout the year. From specimen trees that serve as living art to understory shrubs that offer texture and seasonal color, each plant is chosen for its mature size, growth habit, and contribution to your landscape's overall composition and maintenance requirements.

Privacy Screening with Purpose

Thoughtfully layered trees and shrubs for visual seclusion and natural beauty. We create living walls that offer year-round privacy without sacrificing aesthetics—combining evergreen structure with seasonal interest through carefully selected native species that thrive in your specific microclimate while providing natural sound buffering and wildlife habitat.

Pollinator & Native Gardens

Support biodiversity while enjoying seasonal color and soft textures. Our pollinator gardens attract butterflies, bees, and beneficial insects through strategic plantings of native wildflowers, grasses, and flowering shrubs that bloom in succession from spring through fall. These low-maintenance ecosystems reduce water needs while creating dynamic landscapes that change beautifully with the seasons.

Rain Gardens & Functional Beds

Help manage water flow with intention—and style. Transform problem drainage areas into beautiful, functional landscapes that capture and filter stormwater runoff. Our bioswale and rain garden designs prevent erosion, reduce flooding, and improve water quality while showcasing moisture-loving plants that create lush, naturalistic beauty even in challenging wet conditions.

Our Design Philosophy

We don’t do cookie-cutter planting schemes. We design with:

 

  • Native and adapted plants suited to Chattanooga’s microclimates

  • A deep understanding of form, scale, and bloom sequence

  • Respect for your maintenance preferences and long-term vision

 

 

From lush and layered to minimal and modern — we tailor each design to how you want the space to feel.
