WHAT DEFINES A LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AND A LANDSCAPE DESIGNER?

With so many different terms and qualifications, our clients can find it to be really confusing.

Landscape Architects have a university degree and are required to be registered with the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA).

Landscape Designers have a diploma qualification from TAFE (or equivalent). They can also be members of the Australian Institute of Landscape Designers and Managers (AILDM). They have a level of practical experience that only comes from hands on learning. Extensive horticultural knowledge and a grounded, practical approach to business. They work primarily in the residential design sector.

The good news is, here at Urban and Rural Design, we have both qualifications.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN PROCESS

3 STEP DESIGN PROCESS TO ENSURE YOU HAVE THE BEST POSSIBLE EXPERIENCE.

STEP 1 – INITIAL CONSULTATION

Firstly, an Urban and Rural team member will schedule you a free 20 min no obligation phone consultation with landscape architect Angela Maroney to discuss your project.

At this point, you can book a one on one consultation with landscape architect Angela Maroney for a property site evaluation. This 60 – 90 minute consultation will access the scope of works, discuss your ideas, budget, style, and requirements. The site visit will allow the architect to ascertain if the property has any special conditions that need to be kept in mind when designing this project.

After the site visit, Urban & Rural will provide you with a fee proposal to design your garden.

STEP 2 – CONCEPT & PLAN

On approval, Urban & Rural Design will start to design your project. This a collaborative process between you and your landscape architect. Therefore they will prepare concepts to present to you at their office. At this stage in the design process you decide on any tweaks you may want to make to the design.

On completion, Angela Maroney will present you with Landscape Concept and Planting Plans. The plan is essentially conceptual rather than a construction document.

At this point, the project will take the next exciting turn. Urban & Rural Design will arrange a site visit with Angela Maroney at your property. At this site visit, you will make plant selection and material choices. This will further develop your ideas into a reality.

STEP 3 – CONSTRUCTION QUOTE

Urban & Rural Design is more than just landscape architects, we project manage a team of landscape contractors that can perform landscape works to ensure that your landscape reflects the concept developed.

Therefore, your architect designs with your budget in mind. That is why you will be presented with an accurate construction scope of works and a fee proposal for Urban & Rural Design to manage the construction of your project.

If your project requires any specific documentation to start the project, Urban & Rural will outline it in the scope of works. For example, site plans, working drawings, a survey to scale or Council documentation. A fee proposal will outline any costs associated with this documentation.

Please note: If you prefer your selected contractor to perform the landscape works, Urban & Rural Design will provide a fee proposal for preparing working drawing and specifications.

By choosing Urban & Rural Design to oversee your project, it ensures that the landscape works are performed in accordance with the Landscape Concept and Planting Plan and your dreams become a reality!
