Our Story

Founded in British Columbia in 2015

Northridge was established with a simple vision: to design landscapes that inspire, endure and make a positive impact on the communities that use them every day.

Our multidisciplinary team works with municipalities, developers and private clients to deliver innovative landscape solutions, from urban plazas and residential communities to parks and ecological restoration projects.

We work from the coast to the Interior, and our studio sits a few blocks from the Burrard Inlet waterfront that shaped how we think about water, rain and native planting.

Our Approach
What Guides Us

Our Values

Sustainability

Designing for a healthier planet, with native planting and on-site stormwater.

Community

Creating inclusive, vibrant places shaped by the people who will use them.

Innovation

Creative, evidence-based solutions for real-world site challenges.

Our Approach

Complete drawing sets, from master plan to construction detail

Every commission receives a coordinated package: site and planting plans, sections, elevations and the construction details contractors build from.

  2. Concept Design

    Hand sketches and plan options that test layout, planting character and budget.

  3. Design Development

    Refined plans, sections and materials coordinated with architects and engineers.

  4. Construction

    Tender drawings, site reviews and planting inspections through to handover.

Work With Us

Let’s create better places together

Municipalities, developers and homeowners all start the same way: a short conversation about the site and what you hope it becomes.
