FULL DESIGN SERVICE
I provide a full, end-to-end garden design service from concept and master-planning through to managing contractor tender process(es); construction detailing, overseeing the build, plant sourcing and planting, lighting, furniture, irrigation and ongoing maintenance and after-care.
PLANTING DESIGN
For spaces that simply need rejuvenating and replanting, I can provide a planting design service which focuses purely on the selection, sourcing and planting of the right trees, shrubs and perennials to transform an existing space.
PLANNING
New build houses and developments, and also properties that are listed, often require the submission of a detailed landscaping scheme in order to secure planning approval. I have experience producing the types of plans and supporting documents required to meet landscaping planning requirements, and have experience liaising with the planning departments of various local councils.
A London garden for seclusion and rich textures From the main terrace, a new sinuous path in Dutch clay pavers – with a corten steel pergola walkway – leads to a curved seating area with a circular corten water feature nestled within planting. A modern stumpery includes charred timber cubes and lush shade planting, and a new black gazebo at the back of the garden creates a new area to relax and enjoy the space. Planting included strong architectural shrubs and grasses, and at the end of the garden a row of large Magnolia grandiflora to provide screening and privacy.
A seaside-themed garden for socialising and wildlife. A new granite terrace wraps around the house and provides new areas to relax and socialise in this Portslade garden. A low gabion wall now retains the sunny border and softens the impact of the 2.5m boundary walls. A ‘broken’ corten archway marks the transition into the functional area of the garden; existing greenhouse, veg beds and garage. A large wildlife pond with gravel beach and a new curved lawn create new views from the house. The planting includes a multi-stem birch, fig tree and crab apple with ornamental grasses and tall perennials to tone with the sun-bleached, coastal setting. Completed in September 2023, the garden was built by Grove Gardens Ltd. Corten steel arch supplied by Matt Jacobs Welding & Fabrication.
