Blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living
Meet Meagen Lenhart
Meagen started in the pool industry at 17, learning construction from the inside out. After years of project managing luxury outdoor builds, she founded Outdoor Design Chick in 2023 with one clear vision — design that's as buildable as it is beautiful.
Most designers hand you a rendering and step back. Meagen stays in — acting as your design liaison through construction, making sure what gets built actually matches what you saw in 3D.
What We Do
From the first concept sketch to the final permit, we are your dedicated design partner — bringing every detail of your outdoor vision to life with precision, artistry, and a deep understanding of desert living.
Sculptural pools that read as natural bodies of water, designed to flow with your architecture and landscape. New builds and full remodels.
Desert-native planting plans, shade structures, and curated greenscapes that look as intentional in summer heat as they do in a magazine.
Pavers, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire features — every material and surface selected for beauty, durability, and cohesion with your home's palette.
Photorealistic 3D visualizations that let you walk through your finished space before construction begins — eliminating guesswork and aligning your vision with your contractor's.
Professional construction documentation, HOA submissions, and city permit packages — we handle the paperwork so your project moves forward without delays.
Meagen acts as your on-call design advocate throughout the build process — communicating your vision directly to contractors and ensuring the finished product matches the plan.

How It Works
Every great outdoor space begins with listening. Our process is designed to translate your ideas — however formed — into a precise, buildable vision you'll be proud of for decades.
Get StartedWe start with a conversation — your lifestyle, your wishlist, your timeline. No questionnaire, no pressure. Just a real discussion about what your outdoor space can become.
Meagen reviews your property, existing structures, sun patterns, and HOA or city guidelines to establish the full parameters of the design.
Initial layouts and design directions are developed, grounding your vision in real proportions and material palettes specific to your home.
Your space comes to life in full photorealistic 3D — day and night views, furniture staging, planting in scale. You'll see exactly what you're building.
We produce contractor-ready plans, HOA packages, and permit applications — everything needed to break ground without surprises.
Meagen stays engaged through construction — available to your contractor, answering design questions, and ensuring the build stays true to the vision.
"The desert doesn't ask you to fight it. It asks you to design with it."
