    "Making landscaping more than an afterthought."

The landscape design is a vital communication tool. In the collaborative, creative
translation of concepts, ideas, and visions into a tangible landscape the design
provides the foundation for this process.  This visual guide outlines how all the
design elements shall interact depicting spatial arrangement, scale, material
quantity and selection. The design then becomes the blueprint for installation,
ensuring clarity and satisfaction with the end result.

                                            
                                                DESIGN PROCESS:
Site Consultation:
An on site meeting to discuss your needs, wants, and desires for the project. During this
meeting the site’s conditions are evaluated and any potential concerns addressed. This is a
time during which the design intent will be formulated creating direction for the project.

Design Contract:
The initial investment in your landscape should be the design. With this in mind, a design
fee will be structured according to the scope and scale of the project. The design contract
will outline what the design shall include and identify the cost for drafting the plan. The
design fee is based on a rate of $75/hour and collected prior to  design work being
performed.

Drafting:
Following the site consultation and receipt of the design fee the site will be measured,
photographed, grades taken, and drafting work will begin.











Concept Review:
For larger projects a concept review will be conducted to discuss the overall concept before
significant time is invested in details. This is a helpful review to assure designer and client
are on the right page keeping revisions to a minimum.

Presentation:
The design will be presented to you along with a cost for implementation by PS Landscape
& Design. Plant lists are agreed upon and material selections made.

Contracting with PS:
Upon acceptance of our contract a one third deposit will be requested. Once the deposit
has been received your job will be scheduled.

PS Landscape & Design will handle all the details from there...

We maintain very small crews to maximize efficiency and minimize disruption. Once we
begin your project we remain on site until it is completed. Unique to PS Landscape &
Design is the production role played by the Designer. Responsible for ensuring the intent
of the design is carried out as expected, Alex manages each project. She oversees all the
details giving you a consistently reliable source to communicate with every step of the way.


In the end:
At the conclusion of the project we will conduct a walk through with you to explain care of
your new landscape and collect final payment. We will also discuss extended maintenance
as we take pride in our work and want to keep your landscaping looking its best for years
to come.
