Our Approach
Plant the seed.
Nurture it to grow.
Watch it bloom.
Crafting landscapes that harmonise with our clients' lifestyles is paramount to us. Our approach involves thorough consultations to grasp your needs, vision, and how you intend to utilise the space we're designing. Collaborating closely with our landscape construction team, we ensure a smooth progression from design to implementation, offering budget estimates at every step.
Our Approach
-
Phase 1 - Defining the Brief
Every journey begins with an idea. Whether you have a clear vision or simply recognise a need, we will work with you during the initial consultation to define your aspirations for your outdoor space.
As part of this phase, we allow 1-1.5 hours on site to discuss your project and develop a brief. Following this initial consultation, we provide a design or construction fee proposal for your consideration.
-
Phase 2 - Concept Design
Following your approval to proceed with a design plan, we commence conceptulisation. To help you visualise the project, our team will present you with a detailed concept design.
This in person presentation will also provide the opportunity for your feedback and input. Here we will also supply you with a preliminary cost estimate, allowing you to gauge the potential expenses of the project and make decisions accordingly.
-
Phase 3 - Final Plans
After refining the design concept, we provide you with the final design plans. We provide both 2D and 3D plans to our clients to offer a comprehensive understanding of the space.
This allows them to view it from both a bird's-eye perspective and a sectional or perspective view. Our garden design plans thoroughly outline structural areas, planting schemes, and garden features, while also specifying recommended plants, materials, and finishes.
-
Phase 5 - Construction
Bringing your dream outdoor space to life, the team will then begin the construction process. This is the stage where all the design efforts come to fruition, allowing us to begin the process of transforming the design into a tangible space.
Prior to commencing any project, we provide our clients with a detailed itemised quotation outlining the planned works.
-
Phase 6 - Maintenance
We have a team of experienced landscapers and horticulturalists, who prepare annual maintenance programs tailored to each specific project to ensure the results last.
Whether Defined Lanscapes has designed or constructed your garden or not, we can tailor a maintenance plan that suits your needs and space.
-
Add Ons - DA Approval
Should your project require necessary approvals, Defined Landscapes can assist you with the planning approvals required. When you design your landscape with us, we prepare the final design documentation and finishes, lighting and planting schedules. The documentation will contain all the necessary information for any required Council applications and we can assist with that process.
