Garden Design Plans
Survey
In order to produce a scaled plan we would normally commission a detailed
land survey
Design Brief
This is usually a follow up meeting, which takes up to 1 hour, and is primarily
focused on finalising the brief with you, and exploring any other possibilities
that could be considered. We ‘listen’ to you, and although we
may make many suggestions, we will always come up with a written design brief,
which reflects YOUR wishes, and YOUR personal style. No design work is undertaken
until this document has been approved by you.
Presentation Plan
2D (2 dimensional) plans can be drawn up in Black & White, or in Full Colour.
We prefer to present our plans to our clients in colour, since we believe that
this allows you to more easily visualise how your garden may look and feel. Depending
on the complexity of the site, we may also recommend further drawings to be presented
at this stage, such as Section Elevations (a view as a slice through the site)
or 3D drawings (axonometric or perspectives), this is particularly important
if there are lots of level changes throughout the site. Presentation Plans are
usually presented in person since this allows us the opportunity to talk through
the scheme and help you to visualise how your new garden will look.
Lighting Plans
We can also provide an indicative lighting plan within the Presentation
Plan, but for more complex lighting projects we outsource the design & specification
to a Specialist Outdoor Lighting Designer who we work with. The fee for
this is in the region of £250 plus vat.
