Design Consultation

The first consultation meeting ensures that I understand the needs, wants and desires for your unique landscape design.

By discussing your personal aesthetic, lifestyle, current garden dislikes and aspirations, together we are able to identify the design goals to guide the realization of your dream landscape.

STEP 1

Site AnalysisTo achieve a design that is integrated with your existing home and surroundings, a thorough site analysis provides critical inputs into the design process.

1. Inventory of existing on-site and adjacent property features, fixtures and character

2. Assessment of environmental factors including micro-climate, soil, drainageand existing vegetation

3. Developing property base plan including site measurements and grading to ensure accuracyof final design

STEP 2

Concept DevelopmentEvery landscape design is truly unique as design inspiration is uncovered by understanding the personal interests of the client, unique site features as well as sourcing inspiration from my travels around the world.

I will recommend vendors for the installationof the design and will also supervise installation to ensure consistency with the design.
