One step
at a time
Designed around you.
When we work together, I will:
Get to know you, your home and how you want to use your garden.
Understand your outside space, its character and potential.
Explore ideas, themes and layouts that are right for you.
Develop a thoughtful garden design, including hard landscaping & planting.
Produce detailed technical drawings and specifications for your chosen landscaper.
Design and source the planting, from trees and shrubs to the finishing touches.
Help you select the right materials, lighting, furniture and unique garden features.
Support the project throughout the build, ensuring the finished garden stays true to the original design.
Before I draw a single line, I want to understand how you live.
Do you love entertaining? Do you enjoy gardening, or would you rather spend your weekends relaxing? Is your garden somewhere to escape with a coffee, or a place for the whole family to enjoy on a sunny afternoon?
These conversations matter because the best gardens are designed around the people who live in them.
Initial Design Consultation
I like to kick-start new projects with an on-site or virtual Design Consultation. It’s a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about your ideas & ambitions for the project, and for me to get a feel for your outside space.
I charge a small fee for these consultations because they are a design service in their own right. I’ll assess your garden, identify any practical challenges and offer my recommendations on how the space could be improved or redesigned. By the end of our meeting, you’ll have a much clearer understanding of your garden’s potential and what could be achieved.
And if we go on to design your garden together, I’ll reimburse the consultation fee.

Your garden will be designed
in four phases
1 | Design concept
Translating your lifestyle, home aesthetic and functional wants & needs into a comprehensive design concept for your garden. At the end of this phase you will receive a complete Design Concept Pack for your new garden, including a masterplan, planting scheme, fixtures & finishes catalogue and samples of all build materials.
2 | Design Specification
Detailed plans and specification documents for your chosen design scheme, to guide the tendering and construction process. The Design Specification Pack will also allow for precise budget planning before the build process starts.
3 | Design Management
I will be with you every step of the way during the build of your new garden. With oversight of your final design, I will lead regular milestone meetings with your contractors to monitor design progress and address any issues should they arise. During this stage I will also coordinate the purchase and delivery of design related fixtures & fittings as well as manage tree & plant orders with specialist nurseries.
4 | Planting & Styling
This is when your new garden really comes to life with finishing touches.
Planting of all trees & plants from your pre-agreed planting plan and installation of new furniture, light fittings and other accessories.
