brief overview

We mainly serve Intown and a large section of North Metro Atlanta. We will travel to other areas for projects of significant interest. Our projects vary in size and complexity. The simplest ones involve only bed preparation and plantings. More extensive projects include grading and hardscaping such as walls, patios, decks and driveways. Our complex projects often address the complete integration of the home and garden such as the inclusion of a swimming pool, room addition or other structure. These kinds of projects typically utilize the collaborative efforts of our landscape architect, certified remodeler and building designer.

our transformation process

We begin with broad concepts that are gradually detailed as we work thru the design process and get closer to construction. By using this step-by-step approach, design time is not wasted detailing concepts that you don't care for. A thorough consultation with you starts the process. We ask that everyone prepare by locating a copy of their property survey and completing a "project profile"  which is sent to you prior to the initial consultation. When this preparation is complete, your thoughts will be more focused and our initial consultation will be more productive. During the typical one-hour visit, we will view your land and discuss the feasibility of your goals. Sample photos of homes, gardens and plant material will be presented to help define your personal landscape style and color preferences. Verbal design ideas will also be presented to clarify intent and communication. The fee for this initial consultation is typically $125 for projects within the main area that we serve. Fees will typically be higher for other areas, Saturday or evening appointments.

design

Your design will encompass the aspects that we mutually agree are feasible. For those of you who desire more extensive personal involvement, we offer review of rough conceptual designs and multiple design options. A written design proposal outlines our services and fees. You will receive three copies of the completed scaled design in plan view. Artist's sketches and photos can be made available to help you visualize your completed project. Plans typically begin at $800.

installation

Since most plans can be installed in phases, we will recommend the most cost effective flow for your installation. The details are discussed in depth before construction begins to increase efficiency and reduce surprises. Your designer will personally supervise your project's installation and communicate with you every step of the way. Construction or installation phases typically begin at $3,500.

plant health care

Landscapes are living environments that require personalized care. To assist you, we will provide a manual of generic month-by-month instructions for every job that we install at the completion of the installation. Custom manuals are also available for an extra fee. 

We focus on long-term health and preventive maintenance and
 work with nature to unlock your landscapes vigor and vitality and in turn greatly reduce the need for toxic pesticides in your home & garden environment. 

At this time, we only offer this service for projects that we have installed.
