Landscape Design Services

Landscape Design Consultation

Each garden design starts with an in depth consultation and client brief. These are preferably undertaken on site, allowing us to assess all existing factors and the environment. From there we discuss with the client their needs and wants and the way they envision using their new garden. Following the consultation, a fee proposal will be sent.
Fee: $200 consultation fee will be charged for Melbourne metropolitan areas. Please allow at least 1 hour (Interstate and rural will be priced on enquiry).

Landscape Design Concept Plan

Once the fee proposal has been approved and signed, James will come out on site and measure, take heights and document all existing elements. With this information and the in depth client brief the drawings can now commence. (Please note very steep or large blocks may require a qualified land surveyor this will incur additional costs and will be included in the fee proposal).

Stage 1
We put together all our initial thoughts and ideas onto paper (Scaled) showing the general location of all the components discussed on site. These drawings are simplistic and detail will be applied during stage 2 following the client's feedback on the concept. (Allow approx. 2 weeks)

Stage 2
Once the client has come back to us with their thoughts on our initial concept, we commence the detail. These final drawings will provide the following

  • Plant schedule
  • General notes column, which provides details for each garden element.
  • Garden lighting.
  • 2 x cross section elevations of the garden.
  • Photos showing the proposed colourpalette and textures.

Stage 2 plans will be emailed in PDF format and all hard copies will be delivered to the client. The client will be able to see the scale and detail shown within the garden and the concept is now ready for a contractor to quote. Seyffer Designs can also offer quotes from our recommended landscape construction companies.

Landscape Design Coloured Plan

Seyffer designs can also provide a unique watercolor or hand coloured plans. We provide this service because we strongly believe our landscape plans are a piece of art. This service will be quoted and outlined in the fee proposal.

Three-dimensional rendering, of Seyffer Design concepts can also be arranged.

Seyffer Designs Pure Logo

Director James Seyffer's love and passion for gardens began at Melbourne University's Burnley campus in 2006. Inspired by this platform, James realised his dream of creating live canvasses that captivate and delights his audiences. His drive and passion were soon rewarded after receiving an award at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show in 2011. His designs showcase his love for plants, variations in natural textures and hard surfaces.

In addition, James has over a decade of experience as a qualified tradesman in landscape construction and horticulture. This experience cultivated a sound understanding of how to construct aesthetically pleasing landscapes which are now baked into his design philosophy.
