Tropic of Capricorn is a design studio based in Austin Texas, founded by Candice Bertalan.  Candice has a keen attention to detail and distinctive style which shines through in her work.

At Tropic of Capricorn, we believe that plants have the power to transform any space, and we're passionate about helping our clients bring that transformation to life.

We work closely with our clients to understand their specific needs and preferences, as well as the environmental conditions of the space. We strive to create plantscapes that not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the space, but also promote a sense of calm and tranquility.

For our hospitality projects, we understand the importance of creating a welcoming and memorable environment for guests. Our designs are not only beautiful but functional.

In addition to our design services, we offer maintenance services that will keep your plants thriving and uphold the ultimate design goal after installation. 

Using plant life as a focus of interior and exterior design, we’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with some of Austin’s top interior designers and businesses. We’re excited to continue creating unique and inspiring designs that bring the beauty of nature into our everyday lives.
