What Makes Infinite Sky Landscape Design Different?

Why “Free Designs” Are Often Not a Good Idea

Many companies position themselves as offering design plans as “free” but here’s what you need to know:

Lack of Design Training:

Builders or contractors may sketch out a plan, but without formal design education, their proposals often fall short in composition, plant selections, material harmony, and long-term vision. It’s like asking your plumber to redesign the interior of your house.
Build-Driven Profit Models:

When a company makes around 30–40%+ profit on a $50+K build, they can afford to absorb $2–4K in design costs and still profit significantly. That “free design” is just a marketing tool to charm you into them getting the installation contract. However, this locks you in with only them and doesn’t give you room to bid it out to a few companies to get the best pricing.
Flexible Numbers, Fluid Transparency:

Line-item ambiguity lets them adjust figures like demolition costs to make it seem like they’re giving you a discount or free design, even when they’re not.

A professional landscape design plan may potentially save you from wasting thousands of dollars in a build that may not come out successfully since it wasn’t properly designed from the start.

Training / Experience, Transparency & Empowerment:
With a 5-Year University degree in Landscape Architecture, 25 years of experience & 350+ designs projects accomplished, I walk you through the entire design process while including every budget item in relation to the design, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and can intentionally choose where to invest.

Fair, Open Bidding:
You’ll receive bids from at least two of my vetted preferred contractors that gives you full leverage to negotiate fairly.

Hands-On Oversight
Once the build begins, I stay involved, supporting key decisions, making refinements, and maintaining accountability to the contractor so the project stays true to the plan.

This model ensures:

You win, with a new beautiful landscape thoughtfully designed and competitively built
The contractors win, through clear direction, fewer competitors, and fair compensation
I win, for delivering a design that fully aligns with both your vision and practical reality
