Landscape Step #1: Landscape Design

Now that the weather is beginning to cooperate and you have that "itch" to start on your landscape project for this year, consider your plan of attack on how you want your project to turn out.  The best way to do this is to gather your thoughts, magazine cut outs, plant tags and pick up the phone and make a few phone calls to hire someone to help design your project. 

Hiring someone to design your project can be a little confusing.  There are quite a few qualified designers and architects to choose from.  The bottom line is:  Hire someone who is knowledgeable in landscape and hardscape, who is in your comfort zone because you want to work with this person throughout the entire construction process, and someone who will actually listen to your needs and wants.  That is the most important.  You are hiring a professional in this industry but sometimes designers want to push their ideas on you without listening to your needs.  The designers job is to listen to your needs and wants and incorporate that, along with their expertise into the first draft of your design. 

Here in Keller, Texas nature has seemed to come alive almost over night.  As I drive around North Tarrant County I can see people shopping for plants, mulch, and garden art.  Everyone is so excited to cast aside the gloom and doom of Winter and get outside and enjoy the weather.  Visit us as http://www.absoluteoutdoorspaces.com/ and inquire about your Landscape Step #1.  We are excited to help you in all of your landscape needs.
