Personalized Design Guidance from Industry Experts for Qualified Customers.
Designer at Your Door is the ultimate program for anyone dreaming of a SpokaneScape but are unsure where to begin. Explore alternatives to grass-centric landscapes and form ideas to create your SpokaneScape design plan.
Our resident Landscape Architect, Cathy Spokas, will work with you to create a stunning water-wise space that conserves water and enhances the natural beauty of your surroundings.
To qualify for a Designer at Your Door appointment, you must meet the following criteria:
Option 1:
Attend three Water Wise Wednesday Workshops. These classes will be taking place every Wednesday throughout March and April from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at the South Hill Library and will be covering a variety of conservation topics surrounding SpokaneScape.
Option 2:
Attend one SpokaneScape 101 class. These classes will be taking place every third Tuesday of the month from May through October, from 5:30pm – 8:30pm at the WSU Extension Office.
While only City of Spokane Water Department Customers are eligible for the consultation service, everyone is welcome at our public classes.
*To qualify for a SpokaneScape, you must sign-up for a pre-inspection before breaking ground. A Designer at your Door consultation will qualify as your SpokaneScape pre-inspection.
Upon registration you will be asked to complete a Design Survey to help tailor recommendations for your consultation. Providing detailed and specific answers ensures the best possible guidance!
