Studio Philosophy
A design studio providing garden and landscape design services for both domestic and commercial situations. These can range from small urban courtyards to large development projects and can involve a simple border re-organisation to a complete design service. Each project is considered individually in its own environment, with styles and desires tailored for each client. I am comfortable delivering a range of project styles, from contemporary minimalist to historical reinterpretations.
Local materials for hard landscaping or those that are sympathetic to the locality are used wherever possible. The planting schemes will be varied dependent of each client’s desires, but will always work in harmony with existing flora introducing schemes that are bio-diverse and attract wildlife.
Extremely diligent, I pride myself on delivering design projects to an exceptionally high standard, sourcing plants and materials from long established and highly reputable suppliers. All recommended landscape contractors have been assessed on their previous work and match my desire in striving to deliver an exceptional finish.
A garden is a living and ever changing environment, the implementation of a new design cannot be fully realized instantly, nor can it be expected to last indefinitely. The establishment process can take many years and expert maintenance is an ongoing necessity. The initial design and garden implementation can be the beginning of relationship that can last many years ensuring that the space continues to provide you with the desires for which it was intended.
About
I have been designing gardens since 2014, following graduation from KLC School of Design with distinction also achieving the ‘Top Student Award’. Design luminaries Annie Guilfoyle, Paddy Clarke and Matthew Childs provided my initial training with additional guidance Cleve West, Todd Longstaffe-Gowan and Anthony Paul.
My practical horticultural experience has been enhanced from working at Hampton Court Gardens and the specialist perennial and grasses nursery Orchard Dene. Working with CAD software, I provide accurate master plans and technical drawings and also use hand drawn visuals to deliver my concept designs.
