Commissions

Many of Scott’s larger pieces begin with a particular place: a garden, a view, a stretch of water. If you have somewhere in mind, he’d be glad to hear about it.

How it usually goes

  1. A conversationAbout the place, the work of Scott’s you’re drawn to, and a rough budget.
  2. A site visitScott sees the setting: views, light, wind and ground. Further afield, travel can be discussed, but photos work well.
  3. Drawings and a quoteSketches or a maquette, with materials, size and price agreed before anything is made.
  4. MakingIn the Wānaka workshop. You’re welcome to come and see it take shape.
  5. InstallationDelivery and installation by arrangement, with advice on living with it outdoors.

Most commissions take 6 to 8 months, from first conversation to installation.
