DESIGN PROCESS

in a nut shell...

GETTING TO KNOW YOU

  • I begin every project with an initial phone call and consultation either in person or virtually

  • We can walk around your property together to discuss your challenges and goals forming ideas along the way

  • I will provide you with a summary of our initial meeting including next steps to move forward with your project

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR PATCH OF EARTH

  • If you choose to move forward with my design service, I will analyze the area you would like to address

  • This includes existing conditions of the soil, light, water, wind, existing plants, built elements, local flora and fauna, etc.

INITIAL IDEAS

  • Your goals and the site analysis guide me in drafting an initial concept

  • Your feedback helps me to refine the initial concept into the final plan

FINAL LANDSCAPE DESIGN

  • The initial concept is refined into a partial, whole or phased property plan which can be used by you for DIY installation or your contractor for professional installation

  • Details include 2D, scaled, color rendered drawings including all built elements such as patios, pergolas, paths and plants by botanical and common names including quantities, etc.

  • Additional documentation may include plant and general care information, etc.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

  • If you would like more assistance throughout the making of the garden or outdoor living space, I would be happy to:

    • Manage the bidding process if you choose to hire a licensed landscape contractor

    • Source plants and materials

    • Provide oversight during installation

    • Review the final product with you

CARING FOR YOUR INVESTMENT

  • Once your garden and/or outdoor living space is installed, the journey is just beginning

  • Gardens evolve and change through time

  • To preserve your initial investment in your landscape, I can assist you with in-depth maintenance instructions and coaching for you DIY'ers as well as coaching for your favorite landscape companies who may already maintain your residence or place of business
