How we work
DESIGN STAGE
The Design and Technical Specifications stage ("Design stage") involves the production of a package of AutoCAD design drawings, which all form the basis for the Construction stage.
A standard detailed design package includes the following drawings:
- Overall plan (e.g. in slideshow above)
- Setting out
- Excavation & profiles
- Dividing structure (usually either pond bag wall or blockwork wall)
- Pond edge and drainage
- Liner
- Filtration system
- Planting plan
- Access points e.g. steps, ladder, jumping rock
- Other features as required e.g. waterfall, decking, lights
We can explain more about the Design and Construction stages during the Design Consultation.
I wanted something structured and formal, and my wife was for a more natural design that would blend in with the plants and landscape. Gartenart helped us create something that incorporated both points of view.
