Design questionnaire

Design Questionnaire

The first phase of any good design is to understand what you would like your garden to look and feel like so we can ensure it is tailor made for you. This questionnaire will help us clarify your exact requirements, your likes and dislikes and the extent of the project you wish to undertake. Once completed we will then discuss in detail before proceeding any further.

Are there any particular garden styles or themes that interest you i.e. contemporary or traditional?
Have you any favourite plants or trees and any preferences to flower colour?
Please list which existing features in the garden are to be retained.
Would you like to tell us anything more to help us with your garden project?
Understanding your ideas, preferences and dreams for your garden is important to us. It is important we visualise your garden and to do this we ask for a collection of images to represent your ideas. For this we ask you to create a moodboard.

Pinterest and Google Images are great for this. You could also create a scrapbook of things you like, ideas you have seen. It is important for us to understand your ideas. This could be styles, colours, textures, materials, layout, furniture, plants.

Let your creativity go wild! Don't hold back, understanding what you do not like is just as important as understanding what you do.

Keep all of this for our first face to face consulatation...
