I'm looking for someone to do a landscape design for my home in Garner. I'll be doing most of the work myself so I don't want to hire a "professional" to make the design for me but I still want the best I can get. After all it is my home and I want it to look nice.

I'd like someone who's involved in classes working toward a future in this field to help me out. I think our property is challenging (which is why I think I need some help) but the house is nice and should provide resume credentials, a paycheck, and of course a nice sense of accomplishment. Compensation will be commensurate with the level of experience of the individual.

If you see this ad and know anyone please pass it along. If you know a "pro" who'd like to do the design only, again please pass it along. No harm in printing it (ctrl p) and handing it over. If you're interested and qualified (or at least trying to get there), contact me at tim3@dargefamily.com. I'm borrowing this account and seldom check wolfweb so email is the best way to contact.

Thanks to all who view this.

FYI, pretty much any Landscape Architect will just do design drawings for you if you ask. Probably still going to be way more than you want to spend though.

that's what they do. designers always getting cut out in this country... go hire someone, or at least find out how much it will cost. it may be cheaper than you think and you'll probably get ideas you never even fathomed.

I passed this along to the head of communications for the design school... she will probably send out a mass email to all the landscape kids there... just FYI

I've been checking back once in awhile to see what people write. Thanks so much for passing this information on. I always appreciate feedback and if I don't find a student who wants to work with me then I may hire a professional. Anyone who can help please email me at tim3@dargefamily.com. Thank again all.

i sent you an email. i graduated from the college of design back in December with a LA degree and am now working for a company in Durham. I might be interested in doing some design work for you on the side.
