Coleman & Associates was founded in 1987, proudly designing outstanding landscapes across Texas ever since. Principals Aan Coleman and Jan Giles have worked together for 17 years with a steady commitment to each project’s success – environmentally, aesthetically, functionally, and financially.

Our work ranges from complex multi-use projects with multi-million dollar budgets to intimate gardens for the homeowner. With locations in Austin and San Antonio, we've designed and implemented over 1,000 projects from El Paso to Houston.


WHAT SETS US APART

• True Principal Involvement – Our firm has intentionally remained small in order to maintain true principal involvement in each project from start to finish, ensuring each project results in the firm’s highest possible level of design and implementation excellence.

• Maximized Investment – We have a keen ability to maximize the client’s landscape investment, ensuring the highest aesthetic return for their dollar. Our extensive long-term vendor relationships ensure current product knowledge and accurate cost estimates. Ms. Coleman’s 7 years in design/build gave her a strong foothold in these vendor relationships as well as real-world knowledge of construction. Thus, our firm has unparalleled expertise in constructability and construction cost knowledge. Our clients often state that we exceeded their expectations for their landscape and maintenance budgets.

• Sustainability – We provide unparalleled dedication and expertise in sustainable landscape design. This includes site planning for preservation, tree transplant and protection plans, native restoration, and water conserving techniques such as rain water collection, drip irrigation design, and xeriscape planting design. Many of our projects have been recognized for outstanding environmental stewardship.
