The Design Process

1. Visit clients to discuss ideas, favourite materials and plants, likes and dislikes, suggestions and information on design for hardscape and softscape.
20% deposit required before any design work begins.

2. Site survey, soil analysis, measurements, photos and levels taken.

3. Return with first draft pencil sketches showing hardscape, lawns, planting and seating areas. (also, if required, ponds, pergolas, arbours, statuary, planting containers, sculptures and ironwork). Discuss, select and make amendments.

4. Third visit to present masterplan, which will be drawn with watercolours showing entire garden or required areas with all hard landscaping and plants. This gives a complete picture of materials for hard landscaping, and will show quantity and colour of plants, seating areas, lawn, planting areas, pergola, arbour, ponds/waterfeatures and statuary.
Full payment of outstanding balance required on presentation of masterplan

5. Advice sheets are presented in a folder listing all plants with information on their origin, appearance, eventual size and care advice, such as pruning and feeding notes
