BEST NORTH SHORE LANDSCAPE DESIGNER LIST

1) Vogue & Vine – Landscape Designers Sydney

A designer who’s comfortable moving between North Shore family gardens and apartment-scale outdoor spaces. Their website positions them as award-winning, designing across Sydney including the North Shore, and they specifically speak to courtyards/small gardens (including awards for small garden/courtyard design).

Best suited to:

• Balcony gardens + courtyards: strong small-space focus and proven outcomes
• Pool gardens: lifestyle-led layouts that balance planting, privacy and entertaining zones.
• Outdoor styling: their positioning includes “outdoor lifestyle” and styling elements
• North Shore projects: North Shore service coverage and related suburbs (e.g., Mosman / Lower North Shore)

Why they’re a good North Shore fit: North Shore homes often need a refined approach to levels, privacy, and planting that still feels “easy to live with.” Vogue & Vine’s positioning leans into that blend of design + planting + material detail.

2) MOSS Landscape Design Sydney

MOSS is a strong second pick, especially if you want a process that’s very practical for North Shore courtyards, balconies and back gardens.

Their North Shore page directly references working from small courtyard/balcony gardens through to larger back gardens in Upper North Shore suburbs, and the broader site positions them as small-garden specialists with significant experience.

Best suited to:

• Balcony gardens: Balcony garden specialty (small urban gardens for balcony/courtyard living)
• Large back gardens (Upper North Shore): Larger suburban backyards and North Shore suburb examples
• Outdoor styling + low-maintenance planting: Functional, low-maintenance outcomes and styling

Why they’re a good North Shore fit: A lot of North Shore clients want a garden that looks great but doesn’t become a second job. MOSS leans into low-maintenance design and clear coordination.
