The Approach
We design on your land, not on a screen. Every plan starts with hours of on-site observation -- walking the grade, testing the soil, studying light patterns, and staking layouts at full scale.
Every design starts where it matters most -- on your land. We hand draw initial concepts based on real site conditions, then translate them into accurate 2D plans and detailed 3D renders so you can visualize exactly what your finished landscape will look like before a single stone is placed.
Why Cavemen?
Most landscaping companies design remotely from satellite imagery. We begin with hand-drawn sketches created from multiple on-site visits, then produce precise 2D plans and 3D renders rooted in real measurements. Every element accounts for your property's unique drainage, light, and topography.
What's Included
Topography & Drainage Analysis
Comprehensive site assessment including grade, water flow, soil composition, and sun exposure mapping.
Hand-Drawn to Digital
Designs begin as hand-drawn concepts from direct observation, then are developed into accurate 2D plans and 3D renders for precision.
Full-Scale Staked Walkthroughs
Your entire layout staked on your property at actual size. Walk through your future landscape before construction begins.
On-Site Material Selection
Physical stone, plant, and material samples brought to your property and viewed in your specific conditions.
Common Questions
How does your design process work?
We start by hand drawing concepts on-site based on real conditions. Those sketches are then developed into accurate 2D construction plans and detailed 3D renders so you can see exactly what the finished project will look like.
How long does the design process take?
Typically 2-4 weeks depending on project scope. This includes multiple site visits, draft review, and revisions.
Do I get to see the design before construction starts?
Absolutely. You'll receive detailed 2D plans and 3D renders, plus we stake the full layout on your property so you can physically walk through it at actual size.
