| Stage | Description |
|---|---|
| 01/ Brief & Survey | Our first visit defines the project scope and helps us understand the client's lifestyle and the site's character. We assess key features like soil, aspect, and existing elements. A survey records dimensions, levels, and features, and we also discuss budget at this stage. |
| 02/ Concept | With the brief and site confirmed, we develop a concept rooted in context—environmental, historical, or cultural. Sketches, palettes, and models shape the early vision, which we refine in close dialogue with the client. |
| 03/ Detailed Design | We create technical drawings and refine materials and planting choices. Working with expert nurseries and craftspeople, we ensure every detail supports the design's integrity and buildability. |
| 04/ Tender & Delivery | We coordinate with trusted contractors or the client's team, regularly visiting site to guide quality, budget, and timing. We personally oversee all planting and finishing touches to ensure a seamless result. |
