VizX Design Studios, LLC

I worked with Duane at VizX Design Studios over the last couple years to build out our backyard living space. We started in winter of 2018, and had projects come up in the summer 2019, which delayed our project to this spring. We were never pressured by Duane to get moving on the project, he remained patient until we had the budget to go forward with our plan. As far as the project, we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Duane stayed on his team throughout the project and were eager to get started early this spring. There were never delays or missed days on the worksite, they were there daily to work. The final project was even more impressive than the original he put together on his design software. We have used our bar, grill and fire pit more in the last month than we used our backyard in the last 7 years of owning our home. I would highly recommend Duane and the VizX design team for anyone looking to upgrade their home and create a high end outdoor living space.

VizX's Design studios by far is one of the top outdoor design firms in the Country! We've had the pleasure of working side-by-side with VizX studios this past year. The amount of knowledge and passion is what I was most excited about. VizX's design team has taught me so much, I've actually taking that knowledge to help build my company as well. VizX's unique approach to this industry is what makes them stand out from the rest. They can travel to any part of the country to help a client bring their outdoor living space life. If you're looking for a complete renovation look no further than VizX design studios.

Duane at VizX was awesome! His attention to detail is beyond what we could have ever imagined. We had about 5 different landscape companies come by do discuss our outdoor design and they were all clueless, besides Duane at VizX Designs. My wife and I went back and forth with Duane 4 different times to finalize our design. Duane was patient with us, professional and listened to all our concerns including usable space and budget. When we showed our final design to our pool installer and landscaper, they both were shocked and immediately asked who designed the project. We were happy to tell them VizX Designs in Naperville! 100% highly recommended!

We worked with Duane to design our outdoor living space (pool, bar, two seating areas, gas grill, fire feature, etc.). Duane did a great job of coming up with a concept and then working with us to modify it to fit our lifestyle. He has been very generous with his time and patient as we worked together to make it perfect. It's amazing to see his design come to life since the project has been completed. I have appreciated Duane's professionalism, responsiveness and respect for our ideas through this project. Our outdoor space is truly a work of art and we are very happy with it.

I can not say enough about Duane. The designs he comes up with are just phenomenal. Awesome personality, easy to work with and always has a smile on his face. Highly recommend Duane for your next landscape project design. We worked together for the Daniella Project and looking forward to working with him in the future!

Duane's creativity, when it comes to outdoor living and spatial interest on a property is amazing to witness. His flexibility with creating and tweaking a project so that it's both realistic, buildable and obtainable thru scaled, detailed drawings is what I appreciate most, as a design build contractor myself. VizX Design Studios helps me to better visualize what we're creating, in order for me to properly sell and cost out the work.

Duane is a pro and provided a thoughtful detailed plan that captured sound solutions tailored for all the necessary concerns of the space. Throughout the job Duane was always available to answer questions and was more than knowledgable when it came time to executing it.

Being in the business and a landscape designer/contractor myself, I would say I have a critical eye when it comes to design plans. I often have to pull details and bid off of plans produced by other designers and its not always easy. An accurate, detailed plan is absolutely critical to providing accurate job quotes. Its surprising how often we come across plans that lack pertinent information which halts our ability to quote the project. We end up having to finish the design in ways just in order to quote it, and if the client is getting multiple quotes they are left with several very different project scopes or materials and it clouds their decision making ability. We recently had the opportunity to work on a large project that Duane was the designer for. This has been a very popular project nationally as it was a charitable remodel for veterans and homeless in San Diego, CA. There were many facets to this project and the people installing it were not tradesmen, they were volunteers - over 100 of them, and the project was to be started and completed in 3 days. Certainly an ambitious project that was 100% successful. The project would have never come to fruition if it hadn't been for the solid plan that Duane produced. Think of it in terms of 20+ vendors/suppliers providing materials and products, 100+ inexperienced laborers, 20+ unfamiliar lead contractors to oversee their respective trades, Escondido city codes to comply with, residents occupying the project area, and host of other details. The plans Duane produced were the core of the project. if anyone had a question about anything, the answer was on the plan, if we needed to estimate material quantities, we referred to the plan. It was complete, detailed, easy to read, was really a beautiful design and vision for the property. Beyond the professionalism of the plans, Duane (whom i had never met before this event) was a very nice guy. Professional, knowledgeable and worked his butt off for 3 straight days managing this project. Based on my experience working with Duane, I would recommend him and VizX to any person in need of a professional, outdoor living design. Steve Young Panjia Outdoors San Diego, CA

Working with Outdoor Living Designer, Duane Draughon of VizX Designs, was an absolute pleasure. He was very thorough and since he uses the latest technology, the process was a breeze and my wife and I were immediately sold. He began by making sure our wants and needs were met and also provided his own valuable recommendations which blew us away. Duane's designs were all absolutely gorgeous and he provided full service by even obtaining bids from several contractors for us. Duane's attention to detail can't be beat and we highly recommend him!
