From first idea to landscape concept

How a Modus Green landscape project takes shape.

The process begins with your outdoor goals and property information, then develops through site considerations, design priorities and practical planning before the landscape direction is confirmed.

  1. 01

    Share the landscape brief

    Tell us about the garden, how you want to use the space, the atmosphere you prefer and the main improvements you would like the design to address.

  2. 02

    Review the site possibilities

    We consider the available space, sunlight, existing vegetation, circulation, access and other practical conditions that can influence the landscape approach.

  3. 03

    Establish the design direction

    Planting character, garden zones, pathways, outdoor living areas and visual priorities are brought together into a clear concept suited to the property.

  4. 04

    Confirm the project details

    The agreed landscape scope, consultation arrangements, required information and next planning steps are confirmed directly before the project moves forward.

Landscape planning

Site conditions become part of the design conversation from the beginning.

Before the consultation

Share garden dimensions, photographs, access notes, existing planting and any practical site conditions you already know.

During the design discussion

We explore how the outdoor space should function, the atmosphere you want to create and the landscape elements that matter most to you.

After the discussion

Use the direct contact details if you need to clarify a planting preference, site detail or another part of the agreed landscape direction.

Useful before sending

A few clear details can give the design brief a stronger starting point.

  • Property type and approximate garden dimensions
  • Existing planting, structures and main outdoor areas
  • How you would like to use the garden
  • Preferred landscape style, mood or planting character
  • Sunlight, access, drainage or privacy considerations
