Your dream garden expertly designed

My designs are inspired by patterns found in nature. You will find natural shapes and lines, varying elevations, and a rich diversity of predominantly native plant species in my designs.

The intake

The intake is an important part of the process. I come by to look at the garden, but especially to get acquainted and hear what your/your wishes are regarding the garden. Think about questions like: what do you want to be able to do in your garden? Who will maintain the garden? What herbs, vegetables and fruits do you like? What do you know about nature in the area? The wind? The sun? This will be the story with which I will design your garden and is therefore super important.

I will further explain the process and send a brief summary with an indication of cost after the intake. Click here for an overview of the costs.

The sketch design

If you agree to the quote I sent you, I will ask you to create a mood board on Pinterest (I can help with that if needed) and I will start working on the first sketch design. When this is ready I will send the sketch to you and ask for your feedback. This can be done by phone or possibly live - depending on distance and time available.

With this outline design, we can start looking for a party to execute. I work with a number of reliable parties with whom I would be happy to put you in touch if you wish.

The final design

Now I have all the information I need to proceed with the final onwterp of your garden. Basically this is a 2D floor plan drawing, sometimes partly 3D, a technical drawing, mood images, a materials list and a planting plan. 

The output

With this design, the landscaper can begin to implement, or if you are handy you can do it yourself. I can order the plants for you inexpensively from a good organic nursery. The planting I like to do together with you/you!

I can supervise the process of laying out the garden, then you can be sure that the lines are laid out according to the design and you will have to pay a little less attention yourself. 

The "Plant Day"

I can help with the planting alongside you. This allows me to give you detailed explanations about all the greenery in your garden on the same day. It’s a fun and educational experience to do this together as a family or with all housemates.

Aftercare and manual

And then your garden will be built! I can imagine that there will still be some questions you will have about certain types of plants, maintenance, composting, watering etc etc etc.

You will receive a document from me next to the drawings where all the plants with tips and tricks are listed. But for questions you can also just call me. Just nice to hear how the garden is progressing! After a year I like to come back again to see how the garden is developing.

Curious about the possibilities for your garden?

Whether you have a small city garden or a larger plot of land, you can create a natural garden anywhere. I'd like you to discover that pleasure. Are you curious about the possibilities for your garden? Please contact me for an informal meeting.
