 Design
Hiring a professional landscape designer could be
one of the smartest investment decisions you’ll ever
make. Designers trained and qualified in the
principles of garden design and horticulture can
help their clients avoid the costly mistakes that
can turn the dream of an outdoor haven into a
landscape nightmare. Professional landscape
designers are skilled practitioners of fundamental
design concepts – proportion, unity, balance,
perspective, color, texture – that can bring about a
fully integrated design. They have a comprehensive
knowledge of plants so that you get the right plant
that grows to the right size for the right place in
your garden. They are skilled communicators and
planners who work with contractors, vendors, local
governments and others to complete successful
projects. Professional landscape designers are also
aware of our natural environment and promote
sustainable practices whenever possible. They are
inspired by the creative process, by great design,
and most of all, by their clients’ needs, wants and
dreams.
There is extensive documentation of the value that
intelligent, thoughtful landscape design can add to
your home. Well designed, installed and maintained
landscaping can substantially increase the overall
value of your home. A budgeting rule of thumb for a
complete landscape installation or renovation is
five to ten percent of the total value of your home,
including the land. Therefore, if you own a $550,000
home, plan to spend between $27,500-$55,500 for a
basic, functional landscape that will return up to
200 percent in value. Unusual materials, mature
specimen plantings, or elaborate hardscape will add
to this figure.
The most successful landscape projects start with a
realistic budget. Don’t hesitate to share your
budget with the landscape designer. A professional
landscape designer can help strike a balance between
special materials and cost-conscious choices to
create a beautiful space that meets your functional,
aesthetic, and budget preferences before you ask
contractors for bids.
Finally, be sure to budget for the ongoing care and
maintenance of your new surroundings. Good
maintenance will protect your investment and ensure
many years of personal enjoyment and satisfaction.
