A structured approach to creating landscapes that exceed expectations
Our process is methodical yet flexible, ensuring every project receives the attention to detail it deserves while adapting to unique site conditions and client needs.
We begin every project with an on-site consultation to understand your property, lifestyle needs, and design goals. This meeting allows us to assess site conditions firsthand and discuss your vision in detail.
During this phase, we'll discuss your budget, timeline, maintenance preferences, and any specific requirements or challenges. We'll also review our portfolio and explain how our process works.
Comprehensive site analysis forms the foundation of every successful design. We document topography, drainage patterns, sun and shade conditions, soil characteristics, existing vegetation, and microclimates.
This detailed analysis ensures our design solutions work with your property's natural characteristics rather than against them, resulting in landscapes that are both beautiful and functional.
Based on site analysis and your goals, we develop initial design concepts that explore different approaches to your landscape. These concepts may include layout options, material palettes, and planting themes.
We present concepts through sketches, renderings, and material samples, allowing you to visualize possibilities and provide feedback before moving forward with detailed design development.
Once a concept direction is selected, we develop detailed design drawings including precise layouts, elevations, sections, and specifications. Every element is carefully considered and documented.
This phase includes detailed planting plans with specific plant selections, hardscape construction details, irrigation system design, and lighting plans where applicable.
We provide ongoing support throughout the installation phase, including contractor selection assistance, site visits during construction, and design adjustments as needed based on field conditions.
Our involvement during installation ensures the design is executed according to our vision and specifications, resulting in landscapes that match the quality of the design documents.
Understanding project timelines helps set realistic expectations and ensures smooth project execution.
For projects under 5,000 square feet, the design phase typically takes 4-6 weeks from initial consultation to final design approval. Installation timelines vary based on contractor availability and project complexity, but typically range from 2-4 weeks.
For larger projects, the design phase may take 8-12 weeks or more, depending on project scope and complexity. Installation for large projects is often phased over multiple seasons, with careful coordination between design phases and construction phases.
