When it comes to elevating the look and feel of your garden, landscaping plays a crucial role. Here at Ken Lomax Landscaping, we are landscaping experts that you can rely on for high-quality landscape design.
Together, we can transform your garden into a paradise that you can enjoy year-round. However, in order to execute the perfect landscape project, the landscape design process must run smoothly.
So, what are the elements of landscape design that need to be considered to ensure that the landscaping project is successful?
1. Site Factors
One of the most important aspects to consider for landscape design is the site itself. There are numerous factors that the landscape designers will need to take into account, ranging from environmental factors to soil type and average weather conditions.
On top of this, any natural features, i.e trees, bushes, farmland, etc. and other site contexts may also need to be addressed to create a comprehensive landscape design. Any factor that can impact the landscape design will need to be assessed.
2. Your Needs and Preferences
Another element that landscape designers will consider is your needs and preferences. A landscape designer can bring your vision to life, but they still need your ‘vision’. Don’t be surprised if you are asked a number of different questions relating to your ideal garden landscape and the style or theme that you have in mind.
Before contacting landscape architects, we recommend having an idea or two ready when it comes to your garden landscape—create a mood board or collage of inspiration ideas if necessary! This means that when you are consulting with your landscape designer, you are able to answer their questions with ease.
A Successful Landscaping Project
Once the above have been considered, your landscape designer will create a design draft which will likely be edited and amended multiple times until you are satisfied with the final design and are ready to have it implemented.
