ABOUT Octopus Garden Design is based in Warners Bay NSW on the shores of Lake Macquarie central to Newcastle, The Central Coast & Port Stephens regions. Our focus is designing private residential gardens & boutique commercial projects. We are passionate about creating modern, coastal & drought tolerant gardens that combine function, balance & style. SERVICES Design Consultation For Residential gardens, we begin with a Design Consultation. This typically consists of a one-hour on-site meeting with our Director Gerrad Everson, to discuss your brief and provide you with ideas & advice to reach the gardens potential. Garden Design To achieve the best results, we can provide concept design drawings to accurately document all aspects of the landscape to meet your brief & budget. With our University qualifications in design and years of experience, our focus is getting the details right on paper so the final product is at its best. Concept Design Upon acceptance of our proposal, we will measure & analyse your site to provide an accurate base drawing to begin our concept design for your new garden. The concept design stage provides a detailed drawings of the garden such as the layout of lawns, garden beds, paving, pools, barbecues, decking, lighting & plant selection as necessary. The drawings are then presented & explained in further detail along with plant photos & material samples. Through discussion, any amendments are noted & changed as necessary. Master Plan If your project has retaining walls, swimming pools or other structures, further drawings may be required by an Engineer or building designer for approval by local Council & for construction purposes. We are always happy to work in conjunction with other consultants or we can arrange this for you to ensure a smooth transition to building the garden. Construction On completion of the landscape design documentation, we can refer suitable contractors or arrange quotes to complete the works. We can also supply plants & source feature items such as garden lights, pots, water features, sculptures & furniture or we can design bespoke items upon request.
