AI Backyard Design From a Photo

AI backyard design turns a photo of your own yard into a new look for it. Upload a picture taken from the back door, choose a style and compare the result with the yard you have now.

Still deciding?

  • Start free.

    New accounts get 5 free credits, no card needed.

  • Your yard, not a stock photo.

    The design is drawn on your picture, so the house, fence and trees stay where they are.

  • A concept, not a plan.

    You get an image to share with family or a landscaper. It has no measurements or plant lists.

Design my backyard in your own photo

Design your backyard in the photo you already took. The backyard design tool keeps the house, windows and boundaries and changes what grows and what you walk on.

  • Planting: lawn, beds, native or low-water
  • Hardscape: patio, paths, gravel or decking
  • Season and time of day for the render

Compare backyard styles side by side

Each AI backyard design uses one of 18 styles, from Modern and Japanese to Xeriscape and Cottage. Run the same photo through a few styles and keep the version your household agrees on.

Each style sets the plants, materials and mood, so two designs of one yard can look very different.

Plan around what is already there

A backyard design works best when it starts from the yard you have. Use the Custom tab to describe what you need, up to 400 characters:

  • An entertaining zone with a fire pit and seating for six
  • A shady corner near the existing oak
  • Keep the shed and the side gate path

Your words are added on top of the chosen style. Name what must stay, and say what the space is for: dining, play, a vegetable patch or a quiet place to read.

Questions

Is this AI backyard design tool free?

Yes, to start. A new account includes 5 free credits: a Basic design costs 1, a Pro design 4. After that, packs and Pro plans add more.

Do I need to install a backyard design app?

No. It runs in the browser on a phone or computer.

Will it keep my house and fence?

The design aims to keep the house, fence and large trees in place. Check each result, as AI images can change small details.

Can a landscaper build from the image?

Use it to show a direction. A landscaper will still measure the site and choose plants for your climate.

See your backyard in a new style

Take a photo from the back door and upload it. Your first 5 credits are free.

Results are AI concept images of your own photo, not measured plans. They do not include plant lists, quantities or construction drawings; take the image to a landscaper for those.
