Design

The Conceptual Plan

This is the first step towards creating your ideal outdoor space. Once your existing site plans have been submitted and viewed, a site evaluation will be carried out to plot in any other existing features that are not indicated.

A Conceptual Plan is then drawn to scale, detailing the design criteria established from your initial consultation and Design Brief. This will include hardscape and softscape features and any necessary front elevations of detailed features such as outdoor kitchens, water features, retaining and step works.

You will be contacted to arrange a convenient time to visit their showroom/office to view your Conceptual Plan. Denise will use her unique showroom displays and latest product information to help you visualise and select features for your outdoor space.

Conceptual Plans are based on a rate of $160 per hour (+ GST). Effective as at 1st August 2008.

Option for 2D or 3D can be discussed prior to submittal of the Landscape Design Estimate or as an option once the Conceptual Plans have been viewed. A progress payment is requested at the completion of the Conceptual Plans to release the plans to the Client.

The Master Plan

Once the Conceptual Plans have been finalised, the Master Plans are then drawn. The Master Plan is presented in full laminated colour to a scale of 1:100. A detailed design folder is also prepared for you, containing any relevant material such as brochures, design visuals and plant visuals that apply to your design.

Master Plans are based on a rate of $160 per hour (+ GST). Effective as at 1st August 2008. Balances remaining are finalized on the submittal of Master Plans.
