The studio

We don't mind
getting our heels dirty.

Dirty High Heels is a woman-owned landscape architecture and exterior design studio in Los Angeles. The studio philosophy is plain: a good plan should survive a contractor reading it on a Tuesday morning, and a good designer should know exactly what the dirt feels like under her shoes.

How we work

Drawn carefully. Walked thoroughly.

Every project starts with a real understanding of the site — soil, sun, water, sight lines, the way a family actually uses the space — and ends with a document a contractor can build from. Most of our deliverables are digital: PDFs, plant lists, mood boards, contractor briefs. The bigger packages include a live walkthrough, virtual or on-site.

We pick natural-feeling materials, regionally-appropriate plants, and lighting that flatters at dusk. We do not pick what is fashionable this season. The front of your house should look intentional in 2031, not 2025.
