Landscape Designer Services

A landscape designer is one of your options when you are thinking about landscaping. With a degree in Landscape Architecture, I handle all types of projects, from simple foundation plantings to large, detailed master plans.

It's not just about pretty plants - although that's a big part of landscaping. One has to know how to work with sloped properties, whether it be re-grading or designing retaining walls for function and aesthetics. Landscape drainage is another issue which must be addressed.

Knowing the pros and cons (and relative costs) of various paving materials are also important. Landscape design ideas, such as how to design a patio, a walkway, a driveway, swimming pools ...how to create excitement with a planting design, keeping maintenance to a minimum, outdoor lighting, and other site amenities all come into play. In addition, creativity will make it stand out from the rest.

When I create a design, it has been done in such a detailed way that you can be sure it will work upon installation.

It is not a sketch or just a pretty picture.It is a detailed landscape drawing done to scale. All spaces can be measured. Notes are provided for contractors or homeowners who wish to install the project themselves.

We can also advise on phasing the project. Once the drawings are completed, or near completion, this can be discussed. As much as we would all like to do a project at once, this is not always possible!

We feel it is better to use a professional designer since that person is working only for the client. The object is to create the best design possible without any other purposes. We can recommend highly qualified contractors to install your project. Project administration is also an option.
