EXAMPLE – A small garden approximately 100 sq/m would have up to three sketch designs with a concept plan and a final detail plan. (Indications of planting would be included but not a full planting plan.)The final design would be hand drawn, coloured and represented in 3D plan, allowing clients to feel and move around the space, illustrating exact details of the desired requirements. The integrity of the design allows for changes to materials, if required whilst still retaining the design. Approximate design cost- £250 for the garden design plan.

- 100 sq/m £250
