OUR PROCESS

FROM CONCEPT DESIGN THROUGH INSTALLATION

INITIAL MEETING

At our first meeting we will discuss your objectives, your budget, and how a new landscape design might best meet your needs and aesthetic sensibility. A portfolio of some of my past projects will give you  a better sense of the range and variety of landscape designs possible.

SITE INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS

A design contract starts the process of surveying, photographing, and evaluating existing landscape features and architectural elements. Measurements are taken of the home and the area to be designed. Some projects may have complex permit and zoning issues and it may be necessary to hire a surveyor, soil scientist, engineer, or other specialist, on your behalf.

INSTALLATION

Once the scope of the installation is determined and a final contract signed, we personally will manage every aspect of the job to insure that the design is installed as intended, on time, and on budget. We source our materials at local nurseries and partner with local artisans to execute your ​design.
