DJSquire Designs

I started out with a dirt backyard and incredible view. Look what Diane did for me!! This is my second time using her and I’ll be back again and again!

Diane was extremely helpful from my initial inquiry to her finalizing my project. I have a large dated backyard that due to emergency plumbing issues required us to figure out how to redo without having any forethought in how it should be done. She took the photos I sent her and removed a ton of items and provided multiple ideas and options for us. My recommendation would be to save her time, move out anything you know won't be in the final landscape. In my haste I took a ton of pics for her to choose from not realizing she would be doing extra work trying to remove items, which she did without charging extra.

I am so thankful and grateful I found DJSquire Designs for my need. I have a smallish totally ugly and Barron concrete walked in patio that looks like a jail. I couldn't even find vision for it lol. You should see the design I got!! It's simply incredible and Diane was a dream to work with. Efficient, organized, timely, listened, cared and created a masterpiece.

I was planning to remodel our backyard and started to connect with few contractors in the area. I started to realize that they did not get my vision and were deviating from the vision the more I talked to them. I stop there and that is when I connected with Diane to translate my vision into actual design that I could use to speak contractor language. After consulting with few designers I decided that Diane was the best in the business and was able to comfortably communicate in an open dialogue exchange. Diane is very detailed oriented, will ask the right questions and deliver on promise. I will always use Diane for all other project in near future.

Unbelievable! I sent her a photo of my front yard (presently dirt) and 2 idea photos. With that, she produced a plan within hours. My husband and I are both shocked! Diane is the real deal. Thank you. Now we need to go make this happen. woohoo!!! I couldn't be more relieved.

Here at Go Pavers we provide a total package for customers who are looking for custom paving stones projects. For many years, we have been using Diane’s services, at DJSquireDesigns.com, for creating 2D rendering images to help our customers visualize their projects. Images created show different pavers colors and different design options. Our customers found this very useful. Imaging gives us better communication options with our customers to help them see what their project -- in their own yard -- will "look like." Beginning this year, we were looking for more realistic ways to visualize those big projects that can best be presented in an animation video showing dynamic angles and action. This field is very new and there are very few people around the world that can do 3D hardscape and landscape animation designs. Luckily for our customers, Diane took on this mission and in 6 months become a true MASTER in this field. If you are a contractor trying to provide your customers with "HOW IT WILL LOOK," Diane is the answer! If you are a homeowner who knows exactly what you want, just describe it to Diane, and you will see how dreams come true. The Go Pavers Team

I have watched Diane's work over the last five years and am always inspired by her beautiful creations. Diane focuses on landscape imaging and design ideas with amazing 2d and 3d renderings, and offers these service to contractors and homeowners for very reasonable rates. Diane has an eye for scale, balance, proportion, harmony and rhythm that comes from her years of studying and practicing Feng Shui. She can create exterior living space ideas from either visiting a client's home or from photographs. And, she has extensive knowledge allowing her to incorporate sustainable and water conserving features into the design. I have had the privilege of co-presenting with Diane at the recent workshop titled "Recipe for a Green & Gorgeous Kitchen - Inside & Out" that was held at the Ojai Design Center in California.

DJSquire Designs has been my consultant for three of my homes' landscape projects. Besides knowledge of construction, plant material, and lighting, she also brings to the project a sensitive understanding of use of space, and takes into consideration my lifestyle, integrating my seasonal eating and entertaining activities into the overall design project. She was particularly inventive in creating space to match my contrasting needs of entertaining two people in an intimate setting, to hosting large garden parties, with sit down dinners, with fairy lights, water features, luminescent screens, and scented plant material. If I want something simple, or require a more elaborate scape, DJSquire Designs is highly qualified to meet any need I have had in creating a gracious, functional, southern California garden living space.

I have worked with Diane at DJSquire for years, She has done many 2D imaging projects for me over the last 10 years, from commercial to Residential. My customers have always been impressed with the realism of the images and attention to detail. I have used her images for my Website, Trade shows, Slide shows and advertising in trade magazines. I also know she will burn the midnight oil to get the job completed on schedule. And her prices are reasonable. and I have seen what she can now do in 3D and it is amazing.

I have been working on and off over the last 10 years with Dianne here in Australia, working on my decorative concrete business and software. We have come along way with her knowledge and professionalism in the outdoor living market.

I hired Diane Squire to design my backyard/spa area, which was a particularly awkward and small area to work with. She did a fantastic job and was a pleasure to work with. She imaged it so I could see how it would look from inside my hot tub and other vantage points so I could create just the atmosphere I wanted. Her fee was very reasonable and she didn't try to make the job more than it needed to be. A perfect experience!
