Design Landscape Plans
Design houses, decks, fencing, yards, gardens, swimming pools,
water features, and much more with easy-to-use tools.

Give your plans a hand-drawn look using a wide variety of plant
symbols and color washes. Add plant labels automatically using
the wizard, and add a plant legend with just a few mouse
clicks. Design irrigation systems, planting details, and other
CAD drawings with accurate size and scale. Includes drawing
templates for sheet sizes A0-A4, and custom sizes are also
supported. An extensive library of symbols is included, and you
can create your own using the wizard.

Simultaneous 2D and 3D Design
As you design your landscape, the 2D and 3D views are updated
automatically. Freely switch between views as needed. Design
houses, decks, and other objects in 2D, and then switch to 3D
to set their elevation. Most tools can be used in either view.

The 2D view, called the Plan view, is used for creating
artistic, stylized, CAD-like, or realistic top-down landscape
plans. If an object is added to the Plan view it will appear in
both the Plan and 3D views, but can be customized for each view
if needed. This functionality allows landscape designers to
create both detailed 2D plans and realistic 3D designs at the
same time.

Choose your Design Appearance
Many different design types of plan designs are available in
Realtime Landscaping Architect through large libraries of
symbols, color washes, hatch patterns, gradients, and more.
Create rich vibrant designs, or opt for a traditional black and
white CAD appearance. Through the use of color washes, even
hand-drawn or painted designs are possible.

High Quality Plants
Design landscapes using a library of over 7,200 high resolution
plants including shrubs, annuals, perennials, cacti, water
garden and tropical. Plants are included from all climate zones,
so you can choose the ones best suited to your client’s
location. Most plants are high-resolution, professionally
masked pictures of real plants, so they look realistic even
close up. The library also includes 470 high-resolution 3D
plant models which are ideal for movies and 3D walkthroughs,
and nearly 500 additional standard-resolution 3D plant models.

Create Swimming Pools and Spas
Design breathtaking swimming pools and spas. Above ground,
in-ground, multiple level, and infinity edge pool styles are
all supported. Create spas that flow into pools, add pools with
rockery, diving boards, or waterslides. Add products from
national manufacturers such as S.R. Smith, Master Tile, and
PebbleTec(tm). Present clients with a surprisingly realistic
view of your swimming pool design ideas, complete with flowing
water, reflections, ripples, and even nighttime lighting.

Design Irrigation Systems
Design irrigation systems perfectly suited to your client’s
landscape design. Add sprinklers, piping, and other symbols.
Set the coverage angle and radius of each sprinkler head as
needed.

Create Cost Estimates and Material Lists
Quickly estimate the cost of each project using the integrated
and automatic Project Material List. Simply open the list,
enter prices for the different landscaping objects, and print
the result. When creating client quotes, you can export the
material list to Excel and add labor, excavation, and other
custom items as needed.

Deck Design Made Easy
Use the intuitive deck tools to create decks of virtually any
size, shape, and style. Create a deck design in as few as five
clicks, and then customize your creation until you find the
perfect combination of style and function. Select one of our
predefined styles to instantly visualize a new look, or design
your own. Help clients visualize your design ideas with
realistic deck furniture, outdoor kitchens, and more.

Design Patios, Fencing, Driveways, and More
The possibilities are endless with the wide variety of tools
included in Realtime Landscaping Architect. Create metal,
vinyl, wood, or chain link fencing with ease. Add patios and
driveways by simply drawing their shape and selecting a
material. Add realistic paths, hedges, rockery, and much more.

Plants from Every Planting Zone
Choose from over 7,200 high quality plants using the built-in
search tools. Locate plants that will thrive at your client’s
location and add them to your landscape design with just a few
mouse clicks. Use the Plant Growth tool to help clients
visualize what their landscape will look like in the future:
anywhere from three months to more than 20 years. This is a
great way to determine spacing and other size considerations.

Design over a Photo or in Realistic 3D
Import a photo of your client’s property and design the
landscape. Or, design their entire landscape in full 3D using
powerful design tools. Mix and match methods as needed based on
the needs of each client.

Surprisingly Easy to Use
Realtime Landscaping Architect was designed from the ground up
to be easy to use. Whether you are designing the landscape for
one home or an entire housing development, Realtime Landscaping
Architect will help you create impressive landscape designs
without expensive classes or training.

Design Single and Multi-Story Houses
Use the House Wizard to drop in a pre-built house, or create a
new one from scratch. Add houses simply by drawing their
outline: the walls, trim, and even the roof are all created
automatically. Easily add single and multi-story houses to your
landscape design. Add doors, windows, porch lights, change the
siding and roofing materials, select between gable and hip roof
styles – all with just a few mouse clicks.

Only the exterior of houses are modeled, not the interior. This
makes houses much easier to build and edit than traditional
home design programs, and helps you focus on designing your
client’s landscape.

Garden Design and More
Create plant-filled gardens with mulch, edging, rockery,
decorations, and more. Use the Plant Growth tool to help
determine plant spacing. Use the realistic edging, rock border,
and other tools to design complete landscapes for your clients.

feature, complete with lighting, shadows, and other effects.

Choose from thousands of objects to enhance your landscape
designs such as swimming pool objects, 3D rockery, outdoor
furniture, intricate gazebos, carports, sheds, and much more.

Jerith, Philips Hadco, Amarr, Kichler, Highpoint Deck Lighting,
MasterTile, Noble Tile, and RicoRock.

pavers, mulch, brick, wood, concrete, stacked stone, and more.

Tec, and Eldorado. Change the color and brightness of any
material as needed for each client.

Landscape Sloping or Uneven Property
Is your client’s property sloped, on a hill, or terraced? Use
the terrain sculpting tools to add slopes, hills, contour
lines, and custom topology. Modify the terrain before, during,
or after creating your landscape design. Create terraced
landscape designs using the powerful Retaining Wall tool, using
materials from Eldorado, Belgard, and Unilock.

Design Custom Ponds and Water Features
Design ponds, water gardens, and other water features using the
advanced tools in Realtime Landscaping Architect. Design ponds

accessories and decorations. Using our exclusive Realtime
Walkthrough feature, you can present your designs to clients in
real-time 3D, complete with flowing water, koi fish, and other
effects.

DWG, DXF, and PDF Import
Import DWG, DXF, and PDF files into your landscape designs
using the new CAD Drawing Import Wizard. In just a few clicks,
you can design directly on top of site plans and other CAD
drawings for accurate scale and placement. Extract shapes and
contour lines from DWG and DXF files. Create lot boundaries,
building outlines, and even entire topology using shapes from
your existing CAD drawings.

Design Landscape Lighting
Help clients visualize your landscape lighting ideas using
products from Philips Hadco, Kichler, and Highpoint. Any number
of landscape lights, house lights, and swimming pool lights can
be added to your landscape designs. Show clients impressive
