How to work with a landscape designer

Step One: Briefing Meeting

• Your journey with a Zones landscape specialist begins with a Briefing Meeting. During this meeting, you'll have the opportunity to discuss your ideas, vision, and goals for your outdoor space.
• The specialist will provide suggestions and inspiration to kickstart the project and help refine your concept.

Step Two: Concept Design and Estimation

• After the initial meeting, your specialist will assess the feasibility of your ideas and develop a Concept Design that outlines the overall vision for your landscape.
• You will receive a project estimate, which gives you an idea of the expected costs associated with your project.

Step Three: Detailed Design, Planning, and Costing

• Once the Concept Design is approved, your specialist will proceed to create a Detailed Design. This step involves more precise planning and consideration of specific elements.
• The Detailed Design allows your specialist to establish a project time-frame, provide a fixed-quote for the work, and identify any necessary council consents or permits.

Step Four: Build Stage

• With a finalized plan in place, it's time to move into the Build Stage. Your landscaping specialist will coordinate and manage their skilled team to carry out the installation of your design.
• During this phase, the construction of hardscape elements, planting, and other landscaping features will take place.

Step Five: Your Finished Outdoor Space

• With professional project management and attention to detail, your landscaping project is completed on-time and on-budget.
• You'll be left with your beautifully transformed outdoor space, ready for you to enjoy.
