Bespoke Garden Design Journey
Our garden design service is a thorough process tailored to your specific needs. We start with an initial conversation to understand your vision and requirements. This step is crucial in shaping the subsequent stages of design and ensures that the final garden reflects your personal style and functional needs.
Site Visit and Detailed Survey
The next step involves a site visit and an in-depth survey. We meticulously assess your garden’s current state, including measurements, soil conditions, and existing vegetation. This stage also includes an environmental survey to understand the local wildlife and how your garden can contribute to biodiversity.
Design Development and Master Plan
We then move to design development, where your ideas and our expertise merge. Using sketches, mood boards, and creative briefs, we shape the concept of your dream garden. This leads to the creation of a master plan – a detailed, full-scale drawing of your garden design.
Construction Details and Planting Plans
Our service includes detailed construction drawings and planting plans. We focus on site-specific plant suggestions and layout plans, considering every aspect from soil conditions to year-round appeal. Our commitment to ecological landscaping is evident in our choice of ethically sourced materials and organic plant nurseries.
Project Management and Final Styling
We offer the option of managing the landscaping works, ensuring adherence to design specifications and smooth execution. The final step, the styling day, is where we add the finishing touches, bringing the design to life.

Yes, naturalistic gardens can be designed to be low maintenance.
