RICH IN HISTORY & QUALITY

ABOUT US

Since 1975, McDugald Steele has been the premier luxury landscape architecture firm in Houston, specializing in residential and commercial projects, services for landscape design and construction, and garden management. Our firm was founded  by Douglas M. McDugald as Douglas McDugald Associates. From there, we quickly evolved into one of the first comprehensive landscape design firms in Houston.

At McDugald Steele, we have deep roots in the Houston communities we serve and many of our clients that have worked with us for decades — often on multiple projects. Our success is built on the combined abilities and uncompromising expertise of our team - comprising only the region's finest landscape architects, experienced contractors and professional staff.

Since its inception nearly half a century ago, McDugald Steele has delivered superior design, build and garden management services to thousands of high-profile clients throughout the Houston area. Our firm’s work is characterized by its enduring appeal to classical architectural, combined with a fresh interpretation of modern garden design principles. Our goal is to create and manage outdoor environments that truly reflect our clients’ unique taste and lifestyle. We accomplish this through creative collaboration with clients, landscape architects, outdoor designers, and dozens of technically specialized contractors. Our clients’ outdoor environments become a living work of art, and our dedication to careful maintenance demonstrates that these masterpieces are immaculately tended to as such. McDugald Steele will always be committed to quality, craftmanship, rapid-response communication and friendly, white-glove service.
