Why Use a Qualified Garden Designer?

Increasingly, people are realising the benefits of spending time and investing in their outside spaces. A well designed garden has the potential to add value to your home, improve your health and well being and be positive for nature and the environment.

A professional garden designer will create a concept for a given space that is closely aligned with your brief, whilst taking into consideration the practical aspects of the site. The process is both creative and technical and the outcome, once the concept is finalised, is a detailed layout plan that can be followed by skilled Contractors to construct a garden that fulfils your expectations and sits in harmony with buildings and the surroundings. Allowing your outside space to be enjoyed to its full potential.

A garden designer will be experienced in creating a design that is suitable for you and your budget. The cost of working with a designer is often repaid by clever selection of plants, materials and design solutions, resulting in a space that is both beautiful and functional that can be enjoyed for many years to come.

My Approach

My goal is to create a design that is unique to you and your brief. Creating spaces for you to enjoy and relax.

I hold a Professional Garden Design Diploma from The Cotswold Gardening School achieving a Distinction and have obtained a wealth of plant knowledge gained from working at a wholesale nursery that supplies plants to garden designers.

For inspiration I tend to look towards the wild. The relationship between mosses and lichens growing on a gnarly old branch, the distribution of ferns growing in between cracks on a damp rock face or flowers and grasses sweeping across a meadow. These patterns and associations are often the starting point for the most wonderful designs.

I am passionate about creating designs that are sustainable and work with nature and the good news is, whatever space you have and whatever your preferred garden style, be it formal, urban, country or naturalistic, there are ways to increase biodiversity and support more wildlife coming into the garden.

How We Can Work Together

I strive to provide a professional and friendly experience. Listening carefully to your aspirations for the design and finding solutions is always the most important aspect of the job and the key to successful outcomes.
