GARDEN DESIGN
The importance of having a garden design as part of the process
Everyone thinks they are a designer. The truth is everyone can participate in design, we all manipulate our own environments to serve our specific needs, we plan and arrange our homes and our lives, this is in essence a form of designing.
It is tempting to design your dream garden yourself without using a garden design professional, but this may prove costly and more trouble than it is worth. Put it this way, would you design and build a new dream home without consulting an architect?
I suspect the majority would answer no as not many have the knowledge, expertise and the experience to undertake such a large and costly project. Same goes for designing a dream garden. A qualified garden design professional can create your dream ensuring the design will fit the brief, be cost effective and connect seamlessly with your property and the surrounding environment.
A landscaping project could be one of the most significant investments of your life. Knowing you are investing wisely is crucial for a successful outcome.

So perhaps the question should be rephrased to the following statement: ‘Why I should use a garden designer’
