HERBARIUM I, PRICE

What it costs

A full design starts at 6,500 zł. All prices include VAT. We give you the exact figure after a conversation: thirty minutes online, free of charge, with no site visit.

We do not charge by the square metre. The price depends on how much of the plot we work out in full detail, and how complex it is.

For example, a 3,000 m² plot comes to about 18,000 zł, even if all you need is a terrace and paving. We plan the whole plot in the same detail and draw the paving pattern by hand.

How the price came out on different plots. We price yours separately.

3,000 m²moderate but large18,000 zł

The area includes the house: we design the garden around it and draw the house on plans and visuals.

What makes a design cost more:

  • ground: a slope or a change of level
  • areas: how many there are and how complex
  • paving: a simple layout or a detailed pattern
  • services: lighting, irrigation, drainage
  • special features: a pond, a green roof, fences, garden structures

What is included

In the price of the design

  • a conversation on site
  • survey and analysis (levels, water, light, wind, the views beyond the fence)
  • concept design (layout, sketch, 3D)
  • detailed design (planting, paving, lighting, automatic irrigation)
  • an itemised specification with prices
  • a maintenance guide

Counted separately

  • a green roof
  • a pond
  • a play structure
  • fences
  • garden structures built to our drawings
  • design supervision of the build
HERBARIUM II, THE BUILD

What the garden itself costs

We price the build from the drawings, once the builder has walked the plot, so before the design there is no exact figure. Anyone who quotes over the phone will recalculate later.

What we dozł per m²
Soil, lawn, planting150–350
Plus paving, drainage, irrigation, lightingfrom 300
Pergolas, water, developed lighting, large plants500–1,000+

The figures above cover labour and mid-range materials. Materials can be cheaper or dearer, and the budget moves with them.

A plot of 300–400 m² in the mid-range option comes to 150,000 to 200,000 zł. We name the figure at the first conversation.

The build can go in stages: levels, drainage, services and paving first, then the plants and the details.

Plants are counted one by one. The price depends on the species, the size at planting and the nursery: a young juneberry costs about 300 zł, a large juneberry up to 4,000 zł. You approve the planting schedule with its prices during the design stage, before the build.

How we start

  1. A conversation: 30 minutes online, free of charge.
  2. Contract and a 50% advance for the design.
  3. Survey on site after the advance.
  4. Concept design: you approve it.
  5. Detailed design: the balance before it is handed over.
  6. A build estimate based on the finished design.

The design takes about two months.

We take on a few gardens a season: we see each one through ourselves, which is why there are few. A conversation in July usually means a garden for the following summer.

The build

We see our own gardens through. A design without supervision usually turns into a watered-down version of itself: the contractor trims what is difficult, swaps a material for a familiar one, straightens a line. Small things on their own; together they eat the idea.

Warsaw and the region: our own crews build it, the designer is on hand, and the result is on us. Other cities: we travel and supervise in the same way, with travel counted separately. Would you rather build it yourself, or with your own contractors? That works too: we hand over the full design and explain the drawings. What the garden turns out like is then not on us, and we say so in advance.

"…thank you for the work, for your patience with us and for understanding what exactly we wanted. The design exceeded our expectations…"Marina, Telegram, translated from Russian
