Visualizing Your Garden with Precision Planning
A strong foundation in design planning is essential to crafting a successful garden. David Andersen offers detailed 2D design plans that provide a clear blueprint for construction, planting, and layout implementation.
A. Masterplan in 2D
A Masterplan in 2D is a comprehensive scaled drawing that outlines the entire garden layout, serving as a roadmap for all landscaping and design elements.
Key Features of a Masterplan:
- Defined spatial layout showing the precise placement of key features like pathways, patios, lawns, and planting areas.
- Material specifications, including details of hardscape materials such as stone, timber, or composite decking.
- Structural elements, such as walls, fences, pergolas, and seating areas.
- Drainage and irrigation planning, ensuring water management solutions are integrated from the start.
A Masterplan is essential for aligning the vision of the project with practical implementation, offering a clear guide for both designers and contractors.
B. Planting Plan
A Planting Plan is a specialized 2D drawing that details the types, sizes, and placement of all plant species within the garden.
What a Planting Plan Includes:
- Selection of trees, shrubs, perennials, and seasonal plants suited to the site’s conditions.
- Color schemes and bloom cycles to create visual interest throughout the year.
- Planting densities and arrangements, ensuring harmony between different textures and heights.
- Soil preparation and irrigation recommendations to maintain plant health and longevity.
This tailored plan helps clients and landscapers achieve a well-balanced, visually appealing, and sustainable garden.
C. Lighting Plan
A Lighting Plan ensures that the garden remains functional and atmospheric even after sunset.
Elements of a Lighting Plan:
- Pathway and security lighting to enhance safety and accessibility.
- Accent lighting to highlight architectural elements, sculptures, or water features.
- Soft ambient lighting for patios, seating areas, and garden rooms to create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
- Energy-efficient solutions, including LED and solar-powered options.
A well-designed lighting scheme transforms the garden into an enchanting night time landscape while improving usability and security.
