Services
The range of Garden Design services that I can provide are very much tailored to each project. Working in partnership with you, we will work closely to create a practical, exciting and tailored design, uniquely created to reflect you and your lifestyle. Whether your dream garden style is contemporary or traditional, productive or low maintenance, elegant or a natural environment, or a space for children to play in, each garden presents its own unique design challenge. My focus is to find a successful and personal solution for you and your home.
Garden Design
Following an initial consultation meeting, a design brief will be written up based on our conversation. I will then arrange to have the garden surveyed to gather all dimensions and height levels in order to produce detailed, scaled plans and designs (taking into account any site restrictions and client budgets).
Planting Design
Plants can often be a daunting and challenging part of having a garden, with horticultural requirements to think about (soil types, location, aspect, sun, shade, wind and level of maintenance) as well as consideration being given to form, texture, colour and seasonality of plants.
​
I can help with all planting projects, from a small container garden to the full planting of a new garden.
During a Consultation Visit, I come and walk around the garden with you, discussing opportunities and challenges in the garden, and offering advice and ideas to get the best out of the space you have. You may be happy with your garden on the whole, but feel that the planting is a bit tired or in need of rejuvenation, or that there are areas of the garden that need a bit of TLC or redevelopment, or you may be looking for a complete redesign. All details discussed during the visit will be summarised and emailed back to you, along with any relevant images, sketches or links to refer back to.
​
As my services are very much tailored to the requirements of each individual garden, at the time of visit we can also discuss if you would like me to provide a no-obligation quote for further work i.e. scaled design plans drawn up and help with finding contractors to carry out any works, or planting plans and plant sourcing.
