Professional planning of a new or redesigned garden is essential for the successful realization of one's own wishes. Nevertheless, the advantage is not always clear to prospective garden owners. We would like to show why planning is worthwhile in any case.
Security through precise planning
"Clean planning means cost certainty," says Christian Egli, landscape architect and managing director of our partner egli jona ag. However, not only the costs are described in detail by the planning, but also the implementation. Concept plans, detailed views and planting plans create clarity for the implementation. Discussed wishes and design concepts can be built exactly as planned. In addition, any building applications can already be initiated, which have different processing times depending on the municipality.
