Landscape & Interior Design- a typical process…
When the landscape and interior proposal are part of an architectural project, the steps below will be included in the architectural process.
If the landscape or interior project is stand alone, the process is similar to the architectural submission.
Before we commence a project, we visit the site and sit down with you to discuss the brief and budget.
We will then prepare a fee proposal. If you like, we can organise quotes from all required consultants.
Once the fee proposal has been agreed, we will come up with the first sketch design based on all the information we collected.
The sketch design will be presented to you and any input or changes taken into account, until you sign off on the design.
We will then work on the documentation so that we can get a quote from the contractors.
We can help to choose the contractor and prepare a contract. Depending on the nature of the works, a Building Licence may be required, which will be obtained by the contractor.
During the construction period, we can help with inspections of the site. We can also help with the progress claims and running of the contract. We will ensure that the specifications and drawings are followed and let you know when there are any decisions on changes to be made. In short, we can make your life a little easier during this stressful time.
