This is an in depth conversation with all parties who will have an input into the garden design, when I can question you about your ideas, vision, needs and desires.

I will listen to everyone and interpret your thoughts into an outline plan which I will discuss with you before the real design work takes place. This allows us to establish early on if I am on the right track and if you are happy with my initial plans for your garden.

I will set you up a mood board with pictures of the 'look' I think you want and you can post pictures of things you like to it.

We will discuss your budget and any concerns you may have and we can look at timescales for planning and achieving your new garden.
