Many clients find themselves in a difficult position trying to integrate a remodeled home with new elevations, entrances and windows that no longer have a good relationship with the existing landscape design. A new home on a cleared lot that has no landscape design can be even more overwhelming with endless possibilities and viewpoints from which to consider a new garden, pool, arbors, pathways and landscaping. A good landscape designer can bring fresh eyes and new possibilities to difficult spaces. Define the Landscape Program
As a home owner it’s important to break through the frustration of your existing landscape design and just decide what you want. Your program is an outline or list of desired wants/needs and functions for the site. For example, “I want a beautiful pool with some kind of water feature, grill area and spot for entertainment” or “I want my landscape design to reflect the beauty of the Tuscan Valley.” Visualize and use all of your senses in how you will enjoy your new landscape garden entertaining or relaxing with family and friends.
