A master plan establishes the landscape
structure and shows how the new landscape will work.
It reflects the homeowner’s needs and the qualities
of the site. It details the existing site conditions
and proposed features and illustrates all proposed
plantings and hardscape improvements including
patios, walkways, and walls. Landscape enhancements
such as water gardens, pergolas, and lighting which
are integral elements of the design are also
included. It shows how landscape elements work
together with the site to exploit its virtues and
solve its problems (e.g., bad views, steep slopes,
deer access, etc.).
Working from the master plan, style and function
are elaborated, and these aesthetic and technical
details are designed to integrate visually and
physically with each other and the existing site
elements. From this part of the process, a package
of “working” or construction drawings is produced in
much the same manner as are architectural plans. The
actual project pricing and construction proceed
based these plans.
Take a look at some of the
Master Plans we have developed. |
