Evan Cooper Design

Landscapes that are as functional as they are joyful. California gardens that look good doing good.

Evan Cooper

​I’m a Bay Area native and landscape designer with a soft spot for grasses, native plants, and wild things that thrive with a little neglect. My mom was gardening with me in her belly right up until the moment her water broke. I like to think I’ve been in the garden since before day one.

For over a decade, I’ve been designing California landscapes that reflect both the people who live in them and the ecosystems they’re a part of. My style is all about balance between beauty and function, personal taste and ecological sense. I create low-water, habitat-supporting spaces that feel rooted in California, with a mix of texture, color, and personal quirk. A garden should be designed to support a healthy ecosystem, with beauty and function working hand in hand, offering something you can bring indoors whether its edibles or a vaseful of cut flowers.
