We’re cracking on with the Landscaping! Dan and Dani are joined by an old mate from the Block, Dave Franklin from Franklin Landscape and Design. Dave explains the realities of landscape design, how you can get the most value out of your design budget and the unfortunate fate of many clients; a budget maxed out that generally means the landscaping is the first thing foregone! Dan and Dani talk us through the landscape concept for Blairgowrie house and the process of executing the design on their own.
