How we work

How we work

A clear process, from first contact to finished result.

  1. A site visit, measurements and analysis of the soil, light and existing planting.

  2. A layout sketch, and the choice of plants, materials and key features.

  3. A precise plan with a schedule of quantities, planting layout, paths and lighting.

  4. Carrying out the plan under expert supervision, step by step to the finished garden.

Estimate the cost

This service is quoted per project, so it cannot be priced per square metre. Enter the area and send an enquiry — we will come back with an assessment.

The price depends on the scope of work and the choice of materials and planting, so it is given only after a site visit. The visit and assessment are free.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions

What does a garden design project include?

The project starts from the site as it actually is — measurements, an assessment of the soil, how much light the plot gets through the day, and the existing planting that is worth keeping. Out of that comes a sketch layout, then a precise plan with a bill of quantities, planting layout, paths and lighting. The work is carried out to that plan, step by step, so that nothing has to be improvised on site or redone once it is already finished.

What affects the cost of a landscape design project?

Several things determine the price: the size of the plot, how demanding the site is for access and preparation, whether it is a concept design alone or a full plan with a bill of quantities, and the choice of materials and planting. That is why a serious estimate cannot be given over the phone. The site visit and assessment are free, and after the visit you receive a detailed quote with no obligation.

When is the best time to start planning a garden?

Winter and early spring are ideal for planning, because there is time to settle the layout, the choice of plants and the ground preparation without rushing, so that planting and the rest of the work fall in the season that suits them. Visiting the site outside the growing season has an advantage of its own — the ground, the slopes and the spots where water sits are all clearly visible. If you have left it late, a plan can still be drawn up during the season; the work is simply scheduled around what can be planted at the time.

Can an old garden be made over without tearing everything out?

Usually it can, and usually that is the wiser course. Mature trees, an established hedge and healthy shrubs are worth something no nursery can supply in a single season, so the plan is built around them — with pruning, thinning and refreshing the ground beneath. What is diseased, overgrown or in the wrong place is taken out, and the new layout is fitted around what stays.

Do you work outside Sremska Mitrovica?

We are based in Sremska Mitrovica and work across Serbia. We are currently working in Croatia as well, on hotel and resort projects in Dubrovnik, Rijeka and Rovinj.

Do you design small gardens too?

Yes. With careful planning and the right choice of plants, even small gardens become functional and pleasant green spaces, and the approach is the same as on large plots — from a family home's grounds to a hotel complex.

Which plants do you recommend for a garden in Srem?

Among trees, lime, Norway maple, honey locust, hackberry, cornelian cherry and wild pear all do well here. Among shrubs, privet, barberry, wayfaring tree, forsythia, hibiscus and smoke bush. Among perennials and grasses, sage, echinacea, yarrow, perovskia, miscanthus and feather grass — and for shaded areas, hosta, hellebore, bergenia and Japanese sedge.

In what order does the work run?

Always the same: site analysis, then the plan and the schedule of works, then the work itself, then fine-tuning. Measuring and assessing the site comes before any drawing, because what is feasible on that particular plot depends on it.

Is the design charged for?

Yes, the design is charged for. If you also entrust us with carrying out the work, the design fee is deducted from the price of the work.

How soon do you visit the site after an enquiry?

We come out within two to three days of the enquiry. The visit and the assessment are free and carry no obligation.

What do you receive as the design?

You receive a layout plan, a planting list with species and quantities, a bill of quantities with a cost estimate, and a 3D visualisation of how the garden will look.

What does the quality guarantee mean?

It means we carry out the work in the scope and manner agreed beforehand, using the best-quality materials, plants and equipment available to us. It covers how the work is carried out and the quality of what we install. The aim is work done properly and a result you are satisfied with.
