After
the initial meeting with the client to view the garden and discuss the
project, a design proposal can be prepared. This proposal describes all
the activities that occur during the design process and includes the design
fees.
Phase One - On acceptance of the design proposal, the initial research
stage can begin. This involves a fully measured site survey and a complete
analysis of the garden, including soil samples. At this point the design
brief and budget would be established.
Phase Two - Once all the research has been completed then the work can
commence on the concept design. This is a scaled layout plan of the new
design, accompanied by supportive visuals and samples. At the end of this
phase the plan is presented to the client.

Phase
Three - This stage covers design development and the planting plan.
Design development includes any necessary construction drawings or alterations
to the layout. The planting plan is a scaled drawing showing the exact
location of all plants. This is accompanied by the plant schedule; which
is a list of plants required and and supplier's details. Once construction
is underway then site supervision can also be offered as an additional
service. This includes regular site visits to check on the progress of
the building to ensure a smooth running project. |
