OUR PROCESS
THE DESIGN PHASE
There are several steps that are involved in getting your exterior space from where it is now to where you want it to be. Design is a conceptualization process -- beginning with a comprehensive conversation to understand your preferences and family lifestyle. Only through this input can we create the perfect look and layout for your outdoor spaces. Your finished design will be supplied as a Look Book a multi-page document that includes 3D virtual vantage points of the design, sample images to illustrate various details, and planting recommendations. This document will include the information you need to help you seek bids from contractors that can execute on the various aspects of your project.
Path to Completion
Every design and every client’s plan of execution is unique. Your approved, finished design will dictate the steps that must happen to turn it into a reality. Your final documents will include a “Path to Completion” -- a comprehensive outline of the steps that will/may be needed for construction. It will also highlight all the selections you will need to make (ie. paint colors, pavers, light fixtures). The Path to Completion strives to detail all that is needed to move through the construction phase of your project.
