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.

CONCEPT DESIGN AND FINAL PLANS
Concept drawings, like the ones on this page, will be presented for consideration. Upon your approval of the design concept, we will provide a finished plan with specific plant and hardscape materials indicated.

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.
