Collaborating With a Landscape Designer or a Gardener: How It Works
Depending on your project, you work with a landscape gardener, a landscape designer or a landscape architect. Whatever their specialty, they offer you support in 3 stages.
Step 1: Initial interview
A landscape designer meets you at your home in Toulon or in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur area. The goal of this first meeting is to define your landscaping project. Landscape architects help you conceive, visualise and define your green space, so that it is the most welcoming, relaxing and aesthetically pleasant.
Main takeaways from the first meeting:
- Inventory of needs
- Measurements
- Orientation study
- Environment study (soil…)
- Brightness & darkness (indoor space)
- Hygrometric measurements
- Early diagnosis of strenghts and shortcomings
All these takeaways will help your architect to formulate specifications.
Step 2: Specifications of your landscaping project
- Following the first meeting, the landscape designer or gardener sends you a proposal with attachments such as sketches, 3D plans and a list of suggested furniture, material and accessories.
- After you validate the orientation, more technical details are provided, that will ensure the proper execution of the project. These specifications are also intended to be shared with the company that will carry out the works.
- During this stage, landscape architects can design custom furniture for you, such as planters, basins, fountains, garden furniture, storage units.
- Based on these specifications, several contractors are contacted in order to get quotes for the work execution. The landscape designer assists you in choosing the best offer.
Step 3: Execution by a gardener
Based on the description of the work, the landscape gardener, landscape designer or landscape architect consults the selected company(ies) to establish the quotes for the work. He/she assists you in choosing them.
There are three options available to you for carrying out your project:
- The landscaper or landscape gardener carries out the landscaping of your outdoor or indoor space himself/herself.
- The landscape designer or landscape architect is responsible for monitoring the worksite. The work is entrusted to a gardener or a green space company.
- You carry out or have your landscaping carried out yourself.
