LANDSCAPE DESIGN
The landscape design process includes:
- Start-Up Meeting With the Client: A consultant from Desert Rose Landscape Design will meet with the Client to gain an understanding of the Client’s desires, ideas, requirements, and scope of work. There is no charge for this initial meeting.
- Review of Documents: The consultant will review the available maps and documentation such as site plans and improvement plans, if available.
- Site Analysis: The consultant will gain a thorough understanding of the site to determine if there are unique opportunities or constraints that should be considered in the design and ultimate implementation.
- Preliminary Landscape Plan: A graphic presentation will be created in plan view of the preliminary concept. The preliminary concept will specifically locate exterior house areas, hardscape, landscape areas, planting masses, and related landscape features. A meeting will be scheduled with the Client to present the preliminary concept plan. This will be a virtual meeting via Zoom unless a different method of presentation is agreed upon by both the consultant and the Client.
- Plan Refinement: After reviewing the Preliminary Landscape Concept Plan with the Client, the requested changes will be made based on the Client’s review of the preliminary concept.
- Final Plan: A meeting will be scheduled with the Client to deliver the Final Plan.
