Welcome to Dragonfly Landscape Design
Our Landscape Design Process
Although every situation and every client are different, our design process typically is as follows:
Initial Meeting – We’ll want to meet with you (preferably onsite) to discuss your vision for the project, and your requirements and priorities. If you’ve seen something you like, bring pictures.
Site Work –
We’ll ask for a copy of your survey, but we’ll never start a design project until we physically take our own measurements as well as review the topography and plants currently on site. We may be able to utilize the plants onsite in a new design.
Conceptual (Preliminary) Design -
We’ll draft a preliminary design taking into consideration all Town and DEC compliance requirements and your preferences, as well as appropriate plant selections and materials for your environment
Permits –
We’ll handle the entire permit process, if applicable.
Material Selections & Samples–
Although we are happy to make all selections, we find that many clients appreciate samples and a vist to the nursery. We'll arrange a convenient time and a golf cart).
Final Landscape Plan & Proposal Meeting -
We’ll meet with you to review a final plan and detailed proposal. We’ll review this with you and answer any questions you may have
Implementation –
Following your approval, we’ll schedule the project implementation.
We believe that a great landscape starts with a good landscape design. Good landscape design is an art form and should express your individual taste and complement your home’s architecture as well as meet your lifestyle requirements. From a practical standpoint, a good landscape plan should also take into consideration not only what the space and plants will look like this season, but also what the design will look like 5 or 10 years from now. It should enhance desirable views, screen undesirable views, and ultimately create comfortable outdoor living spaces that you will enjoy season after season.
We provide our clients with exceptional landscape management solutions. At Dragoinfly Landscpae Design, we take a holistic approach to your landscape design; we address your entire outdoor space including: hardscape, decks, patios, walkways, driveways, swimming pools, tennis courts, and ponds as well as gardens and plants. We consider your specific location, visual structure, the relationship between design elements and your preferences to ensure that your outdoor space is functional, aesthetically pleasing and horticulturally sound. And, what makes us different is that the same person meets with you, creates your drawing, runs your job, hand picks your plants at the nursery, and places your plants onsite. So, if a design change is required or a plant substitution is necessary, we can make those changes immediately, on-the-fly, prioritizing your needs and causing no delays in your project timeline.
