PLANTING & LIGHTING PLANS

LANDSCAPE DECORATING SERVICES

The landscape LAYOUT PLAN sets out the location and connection between the various elements in a landscape. It establishes flow, ensures the functionality of spaces and includes the selection of the building materials for your outdoor spaces.

CONCEPT DRAWINGS detail the layout and look of custom structures like pool retreats, outdoor kitchens, storage sheds and pergolas, to name a few.

A PLANTING PLAN sets out the location of all the plants recommended for your landscape. Our plant knowledge is extensive and site conditions always drive our selections. We strive for planting schemes that not only thrive, but also have strong visual impact. As part of our planting design service, you receive a plant presentation with a photo of each plant recommended and any special plant maintenance requirements.

A LANDSCAPE LIGHTING PLAN not only increases the aesthetic value of your home, but also strengthens its safety and security. It invites people to your home and creates beautiful night-time views by highlighting trees, walkways, architectural elements, gathering spaces and focal points. It also illuminates accident-prone spaces like stairs and pavements. When done right, it increases the enjoyment of your landscape investment, in all four seasons.

Our LANDSCAPE DECORATING service involves the selection of the furniture, statuary and decor elements for your outdoors. Our selections imbue your outdoors with comfort and style, adding a layer of sophistication, polish and even drama to the landscape. They reinforce the overall style of your landscape to bring about outdoor living that is truly a notch above.

As part of our landscape decorating service, you receive a design presentation with a vision board, photos of all furnishing recommendations and a product procurement list. In most cases, you will pay the vendor directly for your furnishings.

We generally specify furnishings and decor from our preferred vendors and suggest a starting budget of $10K for purchases. This service is billed at our hourly rates of $150/hr in-office and $195/hr in-field, with a minimum 5-hr contract.

1. A Landscape Designer Saves You Time + Money and Avoids Mistakes

Simply put, a good landscape designer is worth every penny. We ensure that the design phase is given the priority it deserves and that design is given due consideration, without rushing and without bias. Quality construction cannot improve bad design, so it's critical that design be thoughtful to avoid mistakes and regret. Detailed plans with material selections also avoid confusion and costly delays during construction.

2. A Landscape Designer Gets it Right

A qualified landscape designer has the expertise to create a well thought-out plan that considers a multitude of factors. Homeowners who try to do it themselves or rely on a contractor for design advice often have regrets. Save yourself time, money and frustration by hiring a qualified designer that can bring your vision to life in a professional, effective and enduring way.

3. Designers Tie The Entire Project Together

Designers have a bird's eye perspective that ensures all elements of a landscape come together harmoniously. Cohesion and flow come from a thoughtful layout and careful selection of materials. We strive for exterior spaces that are highly functional and have tremendous style.

4. Designers Add Value

A good designer creates spaces with efficient layouts that make the best use of space. Designers can make small spaces can seem larger and avoid awkward layouts. Moreover, a professionally designed landscape has good flow, sophistication and unfading style. Beyond enjoyment value, these attributes translate into increased home value -- proof that an investment in good design will yield huge returns.

Franca made our backyard an absolute oasis. She took a backyard of an end unit town home and it made it feel as if we have acres of land. Her work is incredibly meticulous, thoughtful and creative.

Working with Eden Design made planning for my backyard not only exciting but easy! They really listened to what I wanted and built off that with unique ideas and great attention to detail. Throughout my experience they have been very responsive and always professional.

- Teresa Paoletti

We have our dream backyard thanks to the amazing team behind Eden Design. From day one they listened to what we wanted and created a space that perfectly suited our needs. The layout, overall design and choice of plants exceeded all our hopes. They are kind, thoughtful, creative, artistic and talented designers. They helped us at every stage. Worth the investment—especially for people like myself and my husband who cannot conceptualize a design space. We will definitely use them again in the future when we landscape our front yard, and possibly for a home reno in the future. Thank you again and forever, ladies!!
