Reasons to Hire a Landscape Architect
● We have a plan
The great advantage of the landscaper is to think about space / landscape as a living system, so we anticipate the problems and potentialities of the areas in order to create solutions that meet their interests, which are translated into a General Plan, which will reflect the style, materials, textures and vegetation intended.
● We save your money and your time
The landscape architect coordinates the work of outdoor spaces and is attentive to all the details, helping to detect possible problems in advance, that otherwise would only be conscientized in work, which entails additional values. Our advocacy of space helps to avoid expensive mistakes in the selection of pavements, vegetation, irrigation systems, among others, which leads to future maintenance savings. In addition to these factors we deal with all aspects from designing to execution to save time and reduce stress.
● We value the space
Hiring a landscape architect to design your garden is a great investment for your dwelling, increasing the value of your property up to 15% when compared to identical dwellings. The landscapers are well equipped to project the outdoor space, expanding the living area from the interior to the exterior of the house, increasing also the quality of day to day, besides the monetary value. According to a Virginia Tech study, landscapes grow in value over time, while traditional additions and remodels start losing its value.
● We develop solutions adapted to the reality of each client
The landscaper is a technician very sensitive to the identification of the desires and needs of each client and expert in the integration of existing elements with elements to be incorporated, trying to define the circulation, vegetation and decoration that best suits taking into account the tastes of the client.
What is the difference between a garden with and without a project?
The project harmoniously integrates the exterior space with the existing architectural elements, as well as it allows an in-depth view of how the space will remain before it is constructed. As already mentioned, it identifies in advance constraints that would lead to unnecessary additional costs (which often occur in gardens without projects). With the existence of a landscape architecture project, the possibility arises of this being divided into distinct implementation phases, which go against the time and financial possibility of the client.
