Our collaboration begins with a site visit to understand your aspirations and needs for the garden, while assessing the existing space. Following this, we provide a detailed brief outlining a structured estimate of construction costs, the design process, and a summary of your project objectives.

The next stage involves a topographical survey of the site, documenting existing layouts, levels, and services. Where required, a soil analysis is also carried out to assess appropriate planting conditions.

At this stage, we present a layout plan illustrating the arrangement and key elements of your new garden, along with material palettes and perspective sketches to help you visualise the overall design concept.

Once the concept design has been finalised, detailed technical drawings and a specification package are produced. These include a layout plan, drainage plan, irrigation plan, lighting layouts, level drawings, cross-sections, and all construction details required for implementation.

A tender package is prepared and issued to contractors in order to obtain quotations for the construction of the garden. We work with trusted contractors, or you may appoint a contractor of your choice.

The planting plan indicates the position of all proposed plants and is accompanied by a schedule listing their botanical names, sizes, and quantities, required for costing, ordering, and installation. A planting palette helps to visualise the overall aesthetic, and a maintenance schedule is provided to ensure long-term success.
