After initial yard measurements, observations of various height irregularities and the sun/shade mix, very quickly, Jason came back with a number of design options that took into account our requests and expectations. He also added design considerations that had not occurred to us, but that really made sense for our situation. The options presented were challenging, as we liked a number of elements in each draft layout option. After consideration and discussion, we settled on a plan that was a composite of many elements of the different options presented initially.
With the landscape work complete, we can now more fully appreciate the design work that was provided. The thoughtful consideration of texture, colour, size and sun/shade has combined to deliver a yard that exceeded our expectations. Based on our positive experience, we recently hired Vertical Landscape Architects to provide design services for our cottage as well.
