The Design Process

Phase 1 - Initial consultation

Our first meeting is an information gathering session where we work to understand your site conditions, your desired use of the outdoor spaces, your specific privacy and circulation issues and your landscape budget. We are interested in your preferences and encourage you to present photographic samples that convey your vision for the project. Providing available site surveys, architectural plans or other drawings will save us time and reduce your cost as we begin our evaluation. During this consultation we gather enough information to develop a design proposal that outlines the recommended scope of work. Once the proposal is approved, we move to the next phase in the design process...

Phase 2 - Conceptual Design

	We transform the ideas gathered during the initial consultation into preliminary conceptual designs representing potential landscape solutions.
Concept designs may include site plans, specific design details or elevation drawings that visually detail the design ideas. With this you can prioritize design elements within the landscape. Once we agree on the final conceptual design, we move to the next phase...

Phase 3 - Construction Documents

The construction documents consist of both the final plans and construction cost estimate for your landscape project. Similar to the plans an architect drafts for your home, our landscape architects create an equivalent level of detail for your landscape. Once the final documents and budget are approved, a Construction Manager is appointed to supervise the project from the completed design phase through construction, working in close liaison with the Architect, providing you a single point of contact throughout the project.
