Who can benefit from using VisionScape?


You can enjoy the rewards of using VisionScape if you:
  • Want a professionally designed custom landscape that will bring you enjoyment for years to come.

  • Desire to add value to you home.

  • Need a low maintenance landscape.

  • Have a Homeowner's Association or live in an area with other regulations.

  • Are a do-it-yourself type of person, but don’t trust your landscape design skills.

  • Have a tight budget, but want a well-designed landscape.

  • Need to make some improvements to get your house ready to sell.

  • Would like to see a 3D drawing of your landscape before you install it.

  • Need help with a project area that is 1 acre or less.
If you have a very large project, a project with complicated conditions or an unlimited budget, you would be much more satisfied with the services you will get from a local landscape architect.

With a local landscape architect, you will receive a more personal service because he or she will be available to handle any complications with contractors, any difficult regulations in your area or any other unpleasant situations that may come up in the duration of the project.

Why choose VisionScape for your landscape design?


By using VisionScape, you will be able to:
  • See what the design will look like before you buy it. VisionScape has a state of the art 3D program that allows you to see the design as your Master Designer draws it. You can make any changes right then to insure your satisfaction. You have an active role in the design of your property.


  • Save time. VisionScape’s design process is very organized. You will not have to waste time pursuing projects that won’t work on your property, because with a professional designer’s expertise you will know what work and what doesn’t before you start the project.


  • Finish the project in stages. VisionScape will divide your project into phases that can be completed individually as your budget allows. When the project is complete, it will fit together seamlessly.


  • Save money. The average design fee for a project done with VisionScape is $2,500 which involves about 70 hours of design work. What a deal! That’s less than $36 an hour. The cost for a local landscape architect averages $110 an hour. You’ll pay an average of $85/hr for a landscape designer. VisionScape’s design fee depends on the size of your property and how many and what type of design elements you wish to have.


  • Gain a resource for life. VisionScape supplies you with a maintenance handbook, materials list, and industry tips on garden landscape design. You may also turn to their forums for answers to any question you may have.


  • Get the plant materials you need. VisionScape works with Monrovia Growers, a high quality nursery with locations all over the U.S., to reserve your plants for you, so that they are in stock when you're ready for pick up or delivery.


  • Have your custom landscape design pay for itself. VisionScape works with Monrovia, Kichler Outdoor Lighting, and Aquascape Water Features to allow you to get a rebate on their products. VisionScape will put you in touch with contractors who will give you bids on your project based on VisionScape drawings. Many contractors give up to a 10% discount because they don’t have to do the drawings.

How does it work?


When you sign up for VisionScape’s FREE Landscape Design Consultation, you will receive a phone call from a VisionScape representative to answer any questions you might have and schedule a time for you to meet with a consultant about your project. All meetings will take place over the phone, but you will need email and internet access, so you can get into their system and see your project as it is being designed.

Step 1:

This initial meeting will take about 20 minutes. They will gather basic information like property size or design area size (if you’re not landscaping your entire property), house type, and time frame. You’ll also discuss what elements you may want to include in the project. They will give you a quote for the design of your project at the end of this meeting.

Step 2:

At this point, you’ll decide if you are going to proceed with the landscape design process and pay 25% so they can send someone out to do a field survey and take pictures.

Step 3:

After the survey is completed, VisionScape creates a base map of your property.

Step 4:

Then, the fun begins. You are assigned a Master Designer who will help you create your own personal paradise. You'll meet with your Master Designer several times during the process. We especially like how he or she draws in your ideas right there with you, so you can see the results on your computer screen and you can make changes as you go along.

After the initial meeting with your Master Designer, you’ll pay your next 25% installment, if you wish to proceed to the next step.

During the design process your project will receive attention from an architect, an engineer, a horticulturist, a 3D renderer, and artists as needed. You will get all these services for a fraction of the cost it would take to hire them yourself – plus none of the hassle.

Step 5:

Next, you will get a full set of blueprints, including planting lighting, and irrigation drawings. If you have divided your project into phases, your blueprints will also be divided up so that you and your contractor can easily distinguish between the phases. You'll also receive help finding a reputable contractor in your area, a CAD file to give to an engineer or contractor for permits, a complete materials list, and contractor’s bid sheets.

The third 25% of your design fee will come due when you receive the drawings. You don’t pay the final 25% until all phases of the project are finished.

The VisionScape Website is very informative, but the representative who calls you when you sign up will answer all of your questions. We found that they are very knowledgeable and willing to help, but are not pushy about selling their service.
