Successful design really is “all in the details.” From the first pretty pictures conveying your vision, down to the last detail needed for construction, we can help with all of the necessary steps in between, to make your landscape dream a reality.


Here is a glimpse behind the scenes into a set of construction documents, also called Landscape Plans. These are carefully drafted in AutoCAD by design technicians, and used to solicit bids from contractors. Much like a recipe tells a story of how a delicious dish comes together, our Hardscape Plans and Hardscape Details communicate graphically how all of the elements come together in the real world with important notes like material callouts, dimensions, and references to related details.


Typical details for residential projects like this one include steps, planters, pools, firepits, paving, plant installation, plant maintenance, low voltage landscape lighting, and custom features – such as a grotto built into a backyard pool. To get inside the grotto, one must swim underneath a sheet of water, then can discover a hidden cocktail bar complete with a TV and barstools.
