Design
It’s All About You!
From our first meeting and throughout the entire construction process our design team will focus on your goals, objectives and needs. Our landscape architects strive to understand you and your property so we can provide you with a special and specific solution for your family and home.
We listen and learn each time we begin work with a client. We focus on what is important to you, what the key attributes of your property are, and ultimately what you want. Together we discuss ideas and possibilities, creating a purpose and direction for your design. This will fuel our creativity and allow us to make recommendations to fit your preferences, life, and style.
Our Ideals
On every project we keep these ideals in the forefront:
- Client-driven designs that suit your lifestyle.
- The site requirements and your needs will be the number one focus from start to finish.
- Realistic solutions that our project managers will be able oversee, co-ordinate and build beyond your expectations.
- We do our diligence on the front end to ensure your project costs do not escalate because we know every project is estimated correctly from the start.
Our Design Process
The process or design is not about the materials, the project size, or our own love for design. It is about creating the perfect fit for you. Here is what comes next:
Step 1: Initial Inquiry
During the first phone call we strive to understand your goal and needs to determine if we are a good fit for you.
Step 2: Initial Site Visit & Meeting
If it seems we are a fit, we’ll come by to learn about you, your family, and your property. At this meeting, we’ll discuss your goals, possible next steps, budget, and a design fee.
Step 3: Design Phase
Once a design contract has been signed, we will create a base plan, conduct site analysis, develop the design plan, and create a detailed proposal.
Step 4: Contract & Deposit
Once we agree to proceed, we will formalize the contract and take deposit, begin any necessary permit processes, and create appropriate working drawings.
Step 5: Material Procurement
Moving forward, our purchasing manager will hand select the best materials available for your project, approaching your project as if it were being done at his own home.
Step 6: Constuction Begins
Upon commencement of work we require the second deposit. After that you can sit back and enjoy the process as your landscape is transformed. Our project managers take care of all the coordination, details and will keep you informed on a need-to-know basis as we build your project.
