See Your Yard Before It's Built
Valencia Landscape creates 3D renderings for landscape projects in Northern Colorado.
When you're planning a new landscape in Windsor, Loveland or Fort Collins, it helps to see what you're getting before the first shovel touches the ground. A 3D landscape design gives you a complete visual of your property, including elevations, material choices, and the layout of patios, pathways, pergolas, and turf areas. You can walk through the design digitally and adjust features before construction begins, which means fewer surprises and no costly changes once the work is underway.
Valencia Landscape prepares 3D renderings that show your property from multiple angles and include accurate measurements and material specifications. These designs are structured to meet HOA submission requirements common throughout Northern Colorado, which can help streamline your approval timeline. The renderings include everything from plant placement to hardscape textures, so you know exactly what your finished yard will look like. This service is especially useful for new builds and full renovations where multiple elements need to be coordinated.

How Rendering Helps You Finalize Decisions Early
The design process starts with a site evaluation at your property, where measurements are taken and features like slope, drainage, and sun exposure are documented. From there, a digital model is built that includes hardscaping, turf or sod areas, lighting, and outdoor structures. You'll receive a rendering that shows your yard from different perspectives, along with material samples and layout options that fit your goals and budget.
Once the design is finalized, you'll have a clear understanding of what materials will be used, where each feature will be placed, and how the finished space will function. This means you can move forward with confidence, knowing that the layout has been reviewed and approved before installation begins. It also reduces the chance of mid-project adjustments that delay timelines or increase costs.
The rendering can be used for HOA submissions, contractor coordination, and long-term planning if you're phasing the project over time. It serves as a reference throughout the build and ensures that every detail matches what you approved. The design can also incorporate irrigation zones, grading plans, and drainage routes, which are critical in Colorado's dry climate and help prevent water pooling or runoff issues.
Questions Homeowners Ask Before Starting a Design
Most homeowners in Northern Colorado want to know how the design process works, what information they need to provide, and how long it takes to receive a completed rendering before moving forward.
What information do I need to provide for a 3D design?
You'll need to share your property dimensions, any existing features you want to keep or remove, and your goals for the space. Photos and a rough sketch of your yard are helpful but not required.
How long does it take to complete a 3D rendering?
Most designs are completed within one to two weeks, depending on the complexity of the project and how many revisions are requested. Simpler layouts with fewer features may be finished sooner.
Can I make changes after I see the first version?
Yes, you can request adjustments to the layout, materials, or features before the design is finalized. The goal is to make sure you're completely satisfied before construction begins.
Will the design include plant and material specifications?
Yes, the rendering includes plant types, hardscape materials, and structural elements like retaining walls or pergolas. You'll also receive notes on placement, spacing, and maintenance needs.
Can the design be used for HOA approval?
Yes, the rendering is formatted to meet HOA submission requirements and includes the elevations and material details typically requested by associations in Northern Colorado.
