Starting a Garden Design Project with Me: What You Need to Know

Victoria -

Designing a child- or pet-friendly garden isn’t just about choosing the right plants—it’s about creating a safe, functional, and enjoyable outdoor space tailored to your family’s needs. Whether you’re looking for a complete garden transformation or simple ways to make your space safer, understanding the design process can help you make informed decisions.

Step 1: Understanding Your Space and Needs

Every garden is unique, which is why the first step in my process is gathering key information about your space. This includes:

 • Sunlight and shade patterns

 • Existing plants, trees, and structures

 • Areas that should remain untouched

 • Your specific needs and preferences

To get a complete picture, I ask for photos and videos of your garden. Together, we define clear project goals and establish a budget that aligns with your vision.

Step 2: Creating a Preliminary Sketch

A preliminary sketch is a quick way to explore design ideas and ensure we’re aligned before diving into the final design. At this stage, we:

 • Visualize the concept

 • Make adjustments based on feedback

 • Determine a clear cost estimate for the project

Since every garden has different requirements, this step helps define the scope of work and ensures that my services meet your expectations.

Step 3: Developing the Final Design


Once the concept is approved, I move on to detailed design work. This includes:

 • A master layout outlining the garden’s structure

 • A detailed planting plan featuring safe, non-toxic plants

 • A plant list with species characteristics and required quantities

These documents serve as a guide for professional landscapers or for you to follow if you prefer a DIY approach.

I believe transparency is key when starting a garden design project. By sharing how I work, I want to make the process clear and accessible so you know what to expect at each stage. My goal is to create outdoor spaces that are not only beautiful but also safe for kids, pets, and the entire family.
