Thank you AGLA! That is quite the book- I'll be sure the buy it. It definitely clarifies some of the frustrations I have. I'm thinking of doing a certain percent based on the amount and complexity of the project- anywhere from 6%-10%, like what tfld was saying. I like your idea, tfld, of charging less for the design in order to project manage it.
On my rant about design only- some people just don't understand how important a landscape design is and how much thought goes into each design. It just gets insulting when I have some people (especially doctors out here) think Landscape Designers should be paid like $10/hr or draw free designs when we're professionals too. This might be why I always dread presenting clients with an invoice for the design.
