FAQs
How do we begin working together?
Every project begins with a Discovery Call to clarify your vision, priorities, and investment range before moving into design development. The process then continues with an on-site design consultation.
Do you provide free estimates?
No. The process begins with a structured Discovery Call to determine alignment before design begins. On-site consultations and design work are part of the professional design process, and the on-site design consultation fee is $400, which is applied toward full design services.
What is the investment for landscape design?
Design fees vary depending on scope and the documentation required. Most full-scale outdoor transformations begin in the $3,000 to $6,500+ range for design services, and a detailed proposal tailored to your property and goals follows the Discovery Call.
Is there a minimum project size?
Projects are best suited for construction budgets starting at $50,000. The work focuses on complete, design-led outdoor environments rather than isolated repairs or small upgrades.
