Process

The process begins with conversation—to understand your family's goals, priorities, and how you want to live outdoors. From there, I develop custom designs tailored to your space and guide you toward construction with clarity, realistic planning, and trusted contractor support.

  • 1. Discovery Call + On-Site Visit

    Begin with a phone or video call to learn more about your project. We schedule a site visit to walk the space, discuss your vision, and gather early insights.

  • 2. Preliminary Scope

    Following the visit, I outline the preliminary scope summary document , deliverables, process, and design agreement. Once approved, we begin.

  • 3. Review Existing Documentation

    Any existing, architectural plans, surveys, and HOA guidelines are reviewed to provide additional context and a clearer understanding of the space.

  • 4. Site Survey + Documentation:

    As needed, capture detailed site measurements, photos, videos. and drone footage to build an accurate digital 3d model of your property.

  • 5. Project Summary

    A clear, written summary is developed to capture goals, priorities, and site conditions. This shared document helps guide decisions and align expectations.

  • 6. Inspiration Photo Sharing


    Inspiration images are explored to identify features, materials, planting styles, and overall atmosphere.

  • 7. 3D Draft Design

    A 3D model of the home and landscape is created, exploring layout, hardscaping, plantings, lighting, sun and shade, and circulation—providing an early vision of the design direction.
