Discovery phase
Define your natural sanctuary
Choose the architectural styles and ecological goals that match your vision. In the project form, pick Modern, Cottage, or Mediterranean—this page shows how those directions feel in practice.
Visual landscape styles

Modern Minimal
Clean lines, geometric layouts, and a focus on structural elegance.

English Cottage
Abundant blooms, winding stone paths, and organized chaos.

Zen & Serenity
Minimalist rock gardens, water features, and moss landscapes.

Mediterranean Estate
Drought-tolerant olives, lavender, and warm limestone terraces.
Wizard options map to: Modern (modern) · Cottage (cottage) · Mediterranean (mediterranean).
Primary intentions

Entertainment
Social spaces, fire pits, outdoor kitchens, and expansive lawns for gatherings.

Privacy & solitude
Screening, layered foliage, and acoustic barriers for a personal sanctuary.

Biodiversity
Native pollinators, rain gardens, and habitats for local wildlife.
Defining features
Examples of elements you can fold into plans—your project form captures care level, drought focus, and notes so we align with these building blocks later.
