Design your own putting green in 3D, before you build.
Don't buy a roll of carpet and hope. Design your exact green on our software contours, slope, hole placement then we build it in premium Belgian Namgrass. Orbit it in 3D and simulate a breaking putt, free, right on this page.
Guessing is what goes wrong.
A putting green is a shaped surface, not a flat rug. Design it before you build and three expensive mistakes simply don't happen.
Plan the exact footprint
Sketch the green to scale and see precisely how many square metres you need. No under-ordering, no wasted turf and no surprises on the quote.
Sculpt real break & slope
Add uphill, downhill and side borrow, then watch a physics-accurate putt roll across it. A green that actually breaks is a green worth playing.
Test the pins before you commit
Place holes and try different pin positions in 3D. Lock in the ones that give the best putts before a single roll is laid.
Your green, in 3D.
Drag to orbit the green, then tap Simulate Putt in 3D to watch the ball read the break. There is no sign-up, and the 3D view and putt simulation are free.

How to design a putting green.
The designer walks the same path a real build does. Five steps from blank space to a green you can putt on.
Pick size & shape
Set the footprint and outline. Choose a tidy backyard rectangle, a kidney with a chipping fringe, or an island green. The area updates as you draw.
Sculpt the contours
Raise and lower the surface to build uphill, downhill and side borrow. This is what turns a flat rug into a green that reads and rolls.
Place the hole(s)
Drop cups where you want them and try a few pin positions. See how each one sits against your slopes before you decide.
Simulate the putt
Tap Simulate Putt in 3D and watch the ball break across your contours. Read the line, tweak the slope, putt again until it feels right.

How big, how many holes, how fast.
A quick planning guide before you design. Everything here is adjustable in the tool.
A one-to-two hole practice green for a courtyard, balcony deck or small backyard. Great for short putts and chipping.
Room for real break and a fringe apron. Two to three holes and enough length to practise lag putting and reads.
A multi-hole green with tiers, island targets and a chipping fringe. It is a genuine short-game facility for a landed home or rooftop.
How many holes? One or two for a compact practice green; three or more once you pass ~40 sqm and want variety in your reads.
Fringe & apron. A short collar of longer pile around the green frames it and lets you practise chip-and-runs onto the surface.
Speed (Stimp), in plain terms. A home green tuned to a medium, true pace rolls consistently without being tournament-fast, so it is pleasant to putt on and easy to read. We tune the pile, infill and base so the roll stays even across the whole surface.
How high should the slope be?
Set slope by difficulty, not green size. It is the gradient (rise over run, as a %) that decides how a putt breaks. Size only changes how far you spread that gradient. A bigger green lets the same slope run over a longer distance for a sweeping break, while a small green keeps the total rise low so putts still hold the surface.
Subtle, forgiving break. Best for beginners, kids and casual putting, where the ball tracks true without surprising you.
Reads clearly and rewards a good line. This is the sweet spot for most home greens, with enough break to practise real putts.
Strong, championship-style break for serious short-game practice. Keep it at or below about 4%, because anything steeper stops the ball holding its line.
A quick rule of thumb: 1% is roughly a 1 cm rise per metre. Most enjoyable home greens sit in the 2% to 3% range. Mix gentler zones near the cups with a bolder feed slope for variety. The designer shows the break live, so dial the slope up or down and simulate the putt until it plays the way you want.
How to shape the contours.
A great green is a few simple shapes working together. Here are the moves the designer gives you, what each one does to a putt, and how hard to make it. Match the amount to the difficulty you want, then simulate a putt to check it reads the way you expect.
Feed slope
The overall tilt that carries the ball toward the hole. Keep it near 1 to 2% for a gentle green, 2 to 3% for a classic feel, or 3 to 4% for a bold one. This is the single biggest control over how the whole green plays.
Contour depression
A shallow dished hollow, or swale, that gathers putts and bends the line as the ball passes through. Keep the dish modest, roughly 2 to 5 cm deep over a metre or two, so the ball still rolls out rather than settling in the bottom.
Tier or step
A raised or lowered shelf that splits the green into an upper and a lower section. Use a short transition slope of about 3 to 5% between the tiers, and set the holes on the flatter part of each tier so putts hold.
Ridge or spine
A raised line running through the green that throws putts left or right depending on which side you start. Great for a bold layout. Keep the rise gentle so the break stays readable rather than unfair.
Side borrow
A sideways tilt across the line of the putt that makes the ball curve. Add about 1 to 3% across the line for a natural, satisfying break that rewards reading the green.
Run-off and collection
Let the edges fall away slightly, around 2%, so a missed putt feeds off the green into the fringe or a collection area. It makes the green feel real and keeps stray balls together.
How to layer them by difficulty. For an easy family green, use a single gentle feed slope and one soft depression, and keep everything near the hole flat. For a classic home green, add a modest tier or a side borrow so each hole reads differently. For a bold green, combine a stronger feed slope with a ridge or a deeper collection area, but keep the last metre into each cup calmer so good putts still drop.
Build it in this order. Set the feed slope first, then shape the tiers, then add depressions and side borrow, and finally soften the run-offs at the edges. After each change, simulate a putt from two or three directions to see how the ball reacts before you move on.
