Landscapes Designed for Perth’s Climate and Year-Round Living

Outdoor spaces in Perth need to balance beauty, comfort and practicality.

From long summers to coastal conditions, privacy needs, water-wise planting and year-round entertaining, every landscape needs to respond to our unique coastal environment. 

We consider the site, architecture, orientation, materials and planting from the beginning, so the finished space performs as well as it looks.

This means thinking carefully about shade, flow, access, levels, pool integration, planting choices and long-term maintenance, while creating an outdoor space that feels refined and easy to enjoy.

ONE-ON-ONE CONSULTING WITH SAM

The aim of this initial consultation is to get to know each other. We want to know your vision, desired aesthetics and functional requirements for your future outdoor lifestyle.

We will assess the site conditions, discuss possibilities, identify any challenges, and set a budget. Just as importantly, you will learn about us, see how we work and gain an understanding of the processes involved to complete your project.

While we prefer to do the consultation face-to-face at your project location, we can also conduct it via phone or video call if need be. Following the consultation, Sam will prepare a tailored project brief and design fee proposal for your consideration.

CREATING YOUR TAILORED SOLUTION

Once the brief and proposal have been approved by you, the De Vries Designs team prepare a concept package that illustrates a true-life representation of what your space will look like.

This package includes:

+ 3D fly-through model
+ Presentation prints with concept images
+ Landscape concept plan, drawn to scale

This stage of the process is a collaborative one, and we invite you to share your ideas, views, likes and dislikes. Together, we will discuss and refine the concept to ensure your perfect outcome is achieved.
