UNIQUE IDYLLIC SPACES
Gardens and Landscapes carefully designed to
evoke feeling, not just function.
Carefully crafted gardens offer great value to properties and to the lives held within.
Idyllic is a boutique garden and landscape design studio with a team producing outstanding outcomes. We prioritise exceptional customer service and communication.
Our team are with you from the beginning to end of your project. We even go so far as to offer post completion check-ins and garden care sessions. Helping you reach your goals is our key focus.
From secluded courtyards to roof gardens, coastal properties, country estates and venues to commercial appeal, we are your team. We partner with both trusted builders and landscapers to bring the vision to reality.
You will not find any two projects of ours to be the same. Each project is led by our clients and the unique site and surrounding influences.
We blend practicality and function with refined elegance. The goal is always to create sustainable, ecological, effortless extensions of the home or business.
Idyllic services can be made available Australia-wide.
An initial phone discussion will usually lead to a site consultation. This consultation involves understanding the unique needs of the site and space, it also gives an opportunity for soil evaluations, measurements, imagining/sketching, analysis of any limitations and strategies, photography, and seeing the best way to extend and blend the indoors and outdoors so there is a natural flow effect.
DESIGN PROCESS
This is also a chance to discuss budget, timing, and how much / how little you would like to be involved. This way we can all be on the same page as we progress through the design and development stages.
GETTING STARTED
The three key stages of design and development
Consultation
This initial phase is crucial to achieving your desired outcomes. The consultation allows for the creation of a detailed brief which outlines fee structures, the design process and a complete list of goals and timelines. Once this brief is approved and signed off we can move to phase two, Designs and Guides development.
Designs & Guides
Site analysis, mapping, drawings, colour palettes, mood board creation, 2d and 3d concepts are all produced in this stage. Alongside this comprehensive process runs the planting guides and costings which are dependent upon when you would like your garden to be both fully functional and established. If required tender documents and sub contractor reviews/meetings/site inspections can also form part of this stage. You are welcome to be as involved in this stage as you would like, we will discuss your availability or key check points up front and work to an agreement so everyone feels comfortable and understood.
Implementation
The fun and physical side begins! This is when you start to see the designs take shape. Our priority is always on the soil and what is needed to support plant health.
This final phase brings your goals to life and ongoing management plans discussed and provided.
If you would like to be hands on during this time please let us know during our initial consultation, it’s a very special time and we welcome you to share in it.
