Testimonials
“Dom was instrumental in understanding our specific requirements and interpreting them, he is indeed “client focussed”. His skill in managing various sub trades and knowledge in garden design / plant selection is first class. Problem solving on site when technical / practical issues arose is where Dom shines”
“ ‘Please help us create a year round attractive garden with next to nil maintenance.’ Having handed Dom this brief as well as requesting some artificial grass to supply endless green for my elderly mother to gaze upon, Dom set about suggesting ideas to turn a clay mess into the most delightful garden that completely fulfilled our wishes. The project couldn’t have been better managed and the plant selection speaks for itself.”
“It was such a positive experience to work with Dom on the design of our backyard. He took the time to listen and fully comprehend the brief before working with us to develop our dream family outdoor living space. Dom creates beautiful designs that incorporate the needs, requests and functionality required.
From ‘go to whoa’ Dom managed the demolition/rebuild of our large outdoor space. He kept the burden of the day to day problem solving while maintaining his calm and level headed nature, yet continued to keep us informed ensuring a stress free project for all of us. An excellent outcome all round. ”

About Me
Dominic Gleeson - Director; Imagine Landscape Design
MY NAME IS Dominic
I hold a Diploma in Landscape Design and a Certificate III in Landscape Horticulture. This means I don’t just create beautiful garden designs — I understand how landscapes are built, how plants thrive, and how to deliver outdoor spaces that are both stunning and practical. My advice is backed by years of hands-on experience in landscape construction and garden installation.
For over 20 years, I’ve been designing, building, and managing landscaping projects across Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. Through this extensive experience, I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and how to balance budget‑friendly landscaping solutions with premium garden designs that stand the test of time.
When you choose my services, I can guide you through:
Affordable landscaping options vs. high-end finishes
Plant selection tailored to your local climate and soil conditions
Sustainable garden design that grows stronger over time
Structurally sound outdoor spaces built to endure
I’ll design a garden that is not only visually appealing but also low-maintenance, long-lasting, and perfectly suited to your lifestyle. Whether you’re after a modern landscape design, a native Australian garden, or a family-friendly outdoor space, I’ll create a plan that works for you.
“The plan looks perfect, thank you for designing such a beautiful yard for us. We can’t wait to see it come to life!

“Couldn’t be happier with Dom’s work on our landscaping! it has totally transformed our house. We were sure to let him know there isn’t a green thumb between us but everything has thrived on its own! He was a pleasure to deal with and regularly kept us updated during the whole process. Thanks Dom!”
