Garden Design

A practical plan that actually works

A good garden starts with a practical plan. We design gardens that are beautiful and easy to maintain — important if gardening is not your hobby. A design costs €250 to €600 including a site visit, sketch design and planting advice. If we also build the garden, the design fee is deducted from the project.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a garden design cost?

A professional sketch design costs €250 to €600, including an intake visit, measurements and planting advice. If you have us build the garden as well, the design cost is deducted from the construction quote.

Can you design a low-maintenance garden?

Yes — it is our most requested design brief from international clients. The key is dense planting with ground covers (which suppress weeds naturally), sturdy shrubs suited to clay soil, and limiting the lawn. A well-designed low-maintenance garden needs just a few hours of care per month.

How long does the design process take?

From intake visit to final design typically takes 2 to 4 weeks. You receive a first sketch within 1 to 2 weeks and we refine it together based on your feedback.
