I’m ready to turn my home’s outdoor space into a calm retreat devoted to pure relaxation and leisure. The area is a typical residential garden—no commercial foot-traffic, just family and friends looking for a quiet spot to unwind. I need a thoughtful designer who can translate that goal into a detailed, build-ready plan. Scope • Conduct a quick site analysis using the drawings and basic measurements I’ll provide. • Present two concept sketches so I can choose a direction. • Develop a scaled 2D layout (AutoCAD, SketchUp, or similar) showing planting zones, hard-scape, and circulation flow. • Supply a planting plan with species recommendations suited to my climate and desired maintenance level. • Include mood-board images or simple 3D visuals so I can picture the final ambience. Optional accents such as a small fountain, integrated seating nooks, or winding paths are welcome—feel free to suggest what best supports a laid-back vibe. Once the final design is approved, I’ll need a concise materials list and any construction notes a contractor would expect. If you have a portfolio of residential sanctuaries or zen-inspired spaces, I’d love to see it. Let’s create a garden that instantly feels like a weekend escape, every day of the week.
