Our Process

How we transform your outdoor space from concept to reality

Design Journey

Our structured approach ensures every project receives careful attention and thoughtful design.

Initial Consultation

We begin with an in-depth conversation about your vision, lifestyle needs, and site requirements. This meeting helps us understand your goals and the unique characteristics of your property.

During this phase, we assess the site's conditions, discuss your preferences, and explore possibilities. We'll take notes, photos, and measurements to inform the design process.

Site Analysis

Thorough site analysis forms the foundation of every successful design. We examine soil composition, drainage patterns, sun and shade exposure, existing vegetation, and microclimates.

This detailed understanding allows us to make informed decisions about plant selection, hardscape placement, and overall layout that work with the land's natural characteristics.

Concept Development

Based on our consultation and site analysis, we develop initial design concepts. These explore different approaches to achieving your goals while respecting the site's natural features.

We create rough sketches and discuss options with you, refining the direction before moving to detailed design work. Your feedback shapes the final concept.

Detailed Design

Once the concept is approved, we develop comprehensive design drawings. These include layout plans, plant placement, hardscape details, and material specifications.

We provide detailed plant lists with care information, construction details for hardscape elements, and a clear implementation plan that guides the installation process.

Implementation Support

We remain involved during implementation, providing guidance to ensure the design is executed correctly. This may include site visits, contractor coordination, and plant sourcing assistance.

Our support continues after installation with establishment care guidance, helping your new landscape thrive from the start.

Land-first thinking

We start with what the land tells us, designing solutions that enhance rather than fight natural conditions.

Client Collaboration

Your input shapes every decision. We work with you, not just for you, ensuring the final design reflects your vision.

Detailed Documentation

Comprehensive plans and specifications ensure accurate implementation and provide a reference for future maintenance.

Timeline Expectations

Understanding the typical timeframe helps you plan your project effectively.

Consultation Phase

Initial consultation and site analysis typically take 1-2 weeks, depending on site complexity and scheduling.

Design Development

Concept development and detailed design work usually require 3-6 weeks, with time for client feedback and revisions.

Implementation

Installation timelines vary significantly based on project scope, typically ranging from several days to several months.

Establishment

New landscapes need 6-12 months to fully establish, with ongoing care guidance provided throughout this period.
