Every aspect of garden making is important and consultancy is key since it establishes priorities and helps to define your objectives. Out of the ideas that emerge, we crystallise a vision together, determining also what is feasible within certain constraints.
In a consultation expect us to be really curious about what inspires and what matters to you. Our ultimate satisfaction comes from creating a garden with you that has personal meaning, rather than simply ticking boxes to meet practical requirements. Along with this exploration, a consultancy also involves us taking note of the physical characteristics of the site: the aspect, exposure, soil type, surrounding environment, and so on.
More than that, it is to capitalize and capture the essence of a place... This approach allows us to understand precisely the themes to work and the qualities to highlight or develop, regardless of your request or need which will be taken into account during the design process.
A few days after our meeting, we will provide you the CLIENT BRIEF and a quote for the design drawings to give you an idea if you want us to create your garden. Read carefully our Garden Design page to fully understand our process.
Our consultancy fee is 1.000 kr for an hour and a half, within a 15 km radius around Stockholm. Beyond that, please add 5 kr per km for additional kilometers. If you live locally, we are happy to meet with you face to face, or we can have a phone conversation discussing some photos of your garden, before you take the plunge and commit to the consultancy.
Please note, enquiries from overseas are also welcome. Helichrysum is based in Stockholm, however, we welcome enquiries from the rest of Sweden.
