Your project in the canton of Basel-Landschaft
Basel-Landschaft largely surrounds the city of Basel and extends towards the hills of the Tabular Jura. The municipalities near the border, such as Allschwil, Binningen, Muttenz and Pratteln, are densely built, with apartment blocks, business areas and terraced houses. Further south, Liestal has kept a compact old town, while Sissach and the villages of the Ergolz valley retain a rural character, with farmhouses and cherry orchards. Post-war houses and those from the following decades are common and are often due for energy upgrades or new kitchens and bathrooms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can still describe your project in English. For alterations affecting the outside of a building, check with your municipality. Add the village or town and postcode, together with delivery arrangements in the village street or residential area.
- For a post-war house, describe the current condition of the heating and windows.
- In a densely built municipality such as Allschwil or Binningen, mention the parking options in front of the building.
- For a former farmhouse, describe which parts are to be converted and which are to stay as they are.
Garden design in the canton of Basel-Landschaft
Basel-Landschaft combines densely built municipalities near the border with villages in the hills of the Tabular Jura. In and around Allschwil, the gardens of terraced houses are often small and overlooked by neighbours: the design seeks privacy through planted trellises, narrow-crowned trees and a clearly defined seating area. Further up, around Liestal, sloping plots and traditional orchards open the way to natural gardens with wildflower meadows and mixed country hedges. The limestone soil and hot summers point towards drought-tolerant perennials. The final plan shows positions, species and materials, so that the work can proceed without improvisation. Any structure on the property boundary should be checked with the municipality.
- In a small shared-wall garden, favour standard trees with narrow crowns, which screen the neighbours' windows without darkening the lawn.
- On limestone soil, have the choice of acid-loving shrubs reviewed, as they often struggle in this type of ground.

Frequently asked questions
How can seasonal use guide a garden design in Basel-Landschaft?
Describe when you use the garden and which areas receive sun, shade or standing water at different times of year. Note views to retain and spaces needed for play, seating or food growing. These observations help define the design brief before a planting plan and maintenance programme are proposed.
What should a garden design assignment include?
Decide whether you need an initial concept, a detailed planting plan, construction details or supervision of landscaping. These are separate stages. Explain how you want to use the garden and ask what drawings and revisions will be delivered before physical work begins.
What should I compare in garden design quotes?
Compare the design stages, drawings, plant selection and any site follow-up. Establish whether surveying, permissions or construction are separate. Check how changes to the brief are handled and whether the final documents are sufficient for comparable landscaping quotes.
How should I prepare for the garden design visit or work?
Collect a site plan if available and photographs showing the garden through different seasons. Mark features to keep, such as mature trees or seating areas. Describe the maintenance effort you can manage rather than asking for a style without considering its upkeep.
