Custom Outdoor Designs by Educated Landscape & Horticulture Professionals
At Oahe Landscapes, we don’t just install landscapes — we design outdoor spaces with purpose, precision, and long-term beauty. Our landscape design services in Rapid City, South Dakota combine professional education, real-world experience, and advanced 3D visualization to bring your outdoor vision to life before construction ever begins.
Our team holds degrees in Landscape Design and Horticulture, meaning every plan we create is rooted in plant science, proper spacing, climate compatibility, and functional outdoor living design — not guesswork.
Professional Landscape Design That Fits Your Property & Lifestyle
Every property in Rapid City is different. Soil conditions, sun exposure, slope, drainage, and climate all play a critical role in how a landscape should be designed. That’s why we create fully customized landscape plans instead of one-size-fits-all layouts.
Whether you want a modern low-maintenance yard, a functional outdoor living space, or a full property transformation, we design landscapes that look incredible and perform for years.
Our design process focuses on:
- Long-term plant health and sustainability
- Proper grading and drainage planning
- Visual balance and curb appeal
- Functional outdoor living spaces
- Climate-appropriate plant selection for the Black Hills region
See Your Landscape Before It’s Built (3D Design & Renderings)
One of the biggest advantages of working with Oahe Landscapes is our advanced 3D landscape design previews.
Before installation begins, you can see realistic visual renderings of your future landscape, including:
- Walkways and patios
- Fire pit areas
- Plant layouts and rock beds
- Retaining walls and edging
- Backyard transformations
- Outdoor living features
This eliminates uncertainty and ensures you love the design before any work starts.
