ABOUT OUR DESIGN PROCESS

National Greens, when neccesary will create different designs to show minimum and maximum budget consumption. The drawings below will take you through the design process used for one client who wished to see multiple options. National Greens design team eagerly went to work producing six detailed computer aided drafts. This design option will make your golfscape perfect for your family, friends, or clients for many years to come.

DESIGN CONCEPT 1 Concept one shows the basic artificial putting green with no fringe. The shaded area on the putting surface shows the undulation between the two tiers of this green. By constructing a green without fringe you may save thousands of dollars. Click the image to enlarge concept.
DESIGN CONCEPT 2 Conept two shows the artificial putting green with a chipping pad attached to one end. This option uses little artificial turf and adds a very funtional surface to chip shots from. Click the image to enlarge concept.
DESIGN CONCEPT 3 Concept 3 shows an artificial putting green with a three foot fringe collar around the entire circumference of the green. This is an ideal way to construct an artificial putting green. By surrounding the green with chipping fringe it will be more astheticaly pleasing and create a more realistic golf environment.
