The design process

Our Design Process

Clarity starts with a vision — yours.

It all begins with a simple step: fill out our contact form or give us a call. We’ll set up a consultation to walk your property, understand your goals, and explore your vision for the space. At this stage, we often recommend a custom design. Why? Because nothing brings your ideas to life like seeing them on paper. Until it’s drawn, it’s just potential — once it’s designed, it’s direction.

Step by step

If you move forward with a design, our process looks like this:

  1. 1

    Precision Measurement

    We return for a detailed site visit to take measurements to scale and note every detail—drainage, grading, existing features, and flow.

    The side of the Earthworks truck: the wordmark, Plan · Design · Build and the phone number on the door, the services lettered along the bed.
  2. 2

    Design + Estimate

    Within about two weeks, we’ll sit down for a full design presentation. We’ll walk you through your custom plan, review layout and materials, answer questions, and make any necessary adjustments. You’ll also receive a detailed proposal with transparent pricing.

    Approval & Launch

    Once approved, we finalize the design and move into scheduling. All materials are ordered and construction begins—turning your vision into a finished space built to last.

Real properties, drawn

See some of our designs

A whole property on a tall plan sheet: front beds, a circular feature by the entry, planting down both boundaries and a rear lawn, with a labelled schedule down the left margin.
A curved planting bed on dark mulch beside a paver walk: massed evergreens, pink flowering shrubs, a fan conifer at the turn and a boulder at the near corner.
A whole-lot plan view drawn on an angled boundary: the house and its pool terrace at the centre, mown lawn to one side, and a run of trees following the diagonal property line.
A paved terrace drawn in plan with a table and chairs on it, a banded stone surface beside it, planting along two edges, and existing tree canopies traced in outline over it.
A roadside planting run drawn in plan: a circled existing tree, a counted row of shrubs with callouts to both margins, and two large tree canopies drawn beneath.
A colour plan view of a pool surround: a kidney pool set in paving, a deep planted border of hosta, holly and Japanese maple wrapping two sides, and a rock bed along the third.
A colour plan view drawn around an existing river birch, with hydrangea, hosta and boxwood set along the walk and a planter where the path turns.
A colour plan view of a shaped lawn edged by planted beds, with a boulder-set water feature at one corner and a labelled plant schedule down both margins.
A black-and-white playground landscape plan: hopscotch pavers, a labyrinth, a sensory garden, a creek with bridges, a tree house and a log tunnel, all labelled.
A whole-property plan view: the house footprint with front and rear beds, a timber deck, a walkway and existing tree canopies drawn over a shaped lawn.
A front bed drawn in plan: juniper, switch grass and yew along the approach, hydrangea and blue spruce across the walk, each labelled with its count.
One long border bed drawn in plan: hydrangea, juniper, buckthorn and switch grass in a counted run, with a boulder anchoring the near corner.
A whole-lot plan drawn hardscape-first: drive, walks and gravel beds resolved as one shape around the house, with a scale bar set beneath the drawing.
A paved terrace drawn in plan with seating set on it, viburnum, althea and hosta called out down the left margin and hydrangea and veronica down the right.
A house drawn in plan at forty-five degrees to the sheet, with crape myrtle, veronica and hydrangea massed around all four sides and two large existing trees held at the corners.

What you receive

Landscape Design Services in Wichita, KS

At Earthworks, our landscape designs are more than visual concepts — they are build-ready plans created to transform your property into a functional, long-lasting outdoor space. Our design process is led by an experienced design-build team, ensuring every plan is realistic, installable, and aligned with how your space will actually be used.

What Our Landscape Designs Include

Property-Specific Planning
Every design is customized to your home’s layout, grading, drainage, sun exposure, and existing features. We design with your property’s natural flow, not against it.
Plant Selection & Layout
Plants are selected and placed based on mature size, seasonal interest, spacing, and maintenance needs. The result is a landscape that looks intentional on day one and continues to improve as it grows.
Hardscape Design Concepts
Designs may include patios, walkways, retaining walls, borders, and defined outdoor living areas. These elements are positioned for function, movement, and long-term durability.
Material Coordination
Rock, mulch, edging, pavers, wall block, and other materials are selected to complement each other in color, texture, and scale, creating a cohesive finished look.
Landscape Lighting Concepts
When applicable, designs include low-voltage lighting concepts to highlight focal points, improve safety, and extend the usability of your outdoor space.
Drainage & Grading Considerations
Water movement and problem areas are addressed during the design phase to protect your investment and prevent future issues.
Clear Visual Design Plans
Designs are presented in a clean, easy-to-understand format so you can clearly see the finished vision before construction begins.
Designs Built for Construction
Because we are a design-build company, our plans are created to reduce guesswork, avoid costly changes, and ensure the final installation matches the original vision.
