Nature's Design

About us

We are a relatively small Design/Build Landscaping Company located in Oakland Ca. We love designing and building artful, unique, and functional spaces for our clients. My large demonstration garden that I have worked on for over 17 yrs now has been featured on numerous garden tours and recently painted by the East Bay Landscape Painters. It has been described as "amazing", "magical," and "inspiring" to name a few. It is always my desire and wish to have the same adjectives describing every garden we make.

Nature's Design does excellent work. Keith has made improvements to the yard to keep it looking great. It is a pleasure to look at the results of Keith and his staff.

We have been working with Natures Design (Keith) for several years now and love the work he and his crew do. The yard looks great!!!! Where needed, he recommends updates to shrubbery. It is very pleasant to receive complements from the neighbors on how nice the yard looks... I would highly recommend Keith...

Keith Stover is the owner of this landscaping company. We have worked with him in the last few years to re-landscape our front yard and our courtyard/entry way and have been extremely satisfied with the results. Keith is very knowledgeable about irrigation systems and about the various types of plants, bushes and trees. He worked closely with us to develop an overall landscaping plan that utilized some of the existing landscaping elements (large rocks, existing stairway, existing stonework etc.). After performing the necessary prep work (including installing a drip irrigation system), he would then bring various samples of plants for your review and final approval. His company performed the work in a timely manner and the price was reasonable. Highly recommended!

Recently, we wanted to change the look of the front garden,
removing the lawn to conserve water, and to incorporate more drought tolerant
and native plants. Keith designed a garden that gave the front of our house a
new look (ie., not the same garden now without grass). It incorporates  low stone walls and new uses for our cobblestones,
as well as drought tolerant plants.  The new design enhances the front of our house, and we could not be happier with the
outcome.
Keith and his two able assistants did the stonework, plantings and installed the irrigation. Keith has a very good design sense and is meticulous in his work.
I would enthusiastically recommend him for garden landscaping and design.

I have been using Keith and his crew from Nature's Design for over 20 years, and have found the service to 
be top-notch and professional. Keith has a good knowledge of plants, trees and what they require to thrive in the 
garden.  I rely on him to care for the plants, and discuss with me what is not thriving and what might be a better alternative.
This is the service that has helped to maintain our garden in such admirable shape: caring about the plants and overall 
look and health of the plants. 
Keith has not only designed the current garden landscape, but laid the stone, built the trellises , and installed the lighting.
I will continue to recommend him to people who want a lovely garden.

Keith Stover at Nature's Design has an outstanding aethetic sense.  By moving and removing trees and plants, adding a patio, beautiful retaining walls and raised beds, he vastly improved the way we use our yard.  He also rehabilitated a long broken water feature and designed a lighting scheme that makes our yard feel like a resort.  He and his team communicated well, were very professional and friendly and had a great eye for detail.  We gave Keith a budget and they came in on budget and exceeded our expectations.
