Yvette’s Design Solutions offers flexible Garden Design packages with a range of products including:
Hand-Drawn, Scaled, Garden Design Plans
Concept Boards (showing images of the materials to be used in your new garden design scheme)
Hand-Drawn 2D and 3D Projections (helping you to visualise what your new garden or outdoor space will look like)
Construction Drawings and Details
Detailed Cost Estimates and Material Lists
Detailed Lists of Works (like a recipe for building the garden, this is a guide for build specifications that can be used for quoting purposes or to help you build your own garden)
Additional Bespoke Drawings and Documentation
Garden Design Packages are available as either in-person or remote projects.
In-Person Projects
The first stage is a free* consultation with designer Yvette D. Smith, which can be undertaken either on-site or online via video call.
During this initial meeting, Yvette will listen to your vision and needs for the space whilst offering practical advice and inspiration using examples of past work and experience. A client brief will then be prepared that lists everything discussed during the consultation and outlines the services available and their associated fees.
If you decide to go ahead with a design commission, a detailed surveying service is provided to facilitate accurate plan drafting and calculation of quantities.
Before the design is finalised, draft plans and concepts will be presented so that you can make any alterations you wish and choose a design that truly reflects your personality and vision for the space. Once a design has been agreed a fully-detailed plan will be produced, along with any other required drawings and specification documents, and presented during a final meeting.
All hand-drafted, colour-rendered plans and projections are drawn using precise scaling so that they can be used to accurately inform the physical garden build.
Although Yvette’s Design Solutions does not offer a garden build service in-house, we do have networks of reliable landscapers in certain areas that we are happy to recommend to bring your new outdoor space to life.
Remote Projects
All of the products detailed above are also available as a remote service, primarily intended for sites exceeding a journey time of 2 hours from our offices in Merseyside or Leicestershire.
The overall process follows the same stages as our in-person projects, except no site visits will be made in-person. This means that you will need to provide your own existing site plans and photographs for Yvette to work from when developing your designs.
*Whilst all design consultations are free of charge, a fee may be applied to visit consultation sites exceeding a journey time of 1 hour from our Merseyside or Leicestershire offices in order to cover travelling expenses.
