Garden Design
We create bespoke garden designs tailored to property characteristics and client lifestyles. Our process includes site analysis, concept development and detailed technical drawings. Services cover both contemporary new builds and period properties requiring sympathetic restoration.
Planting Plans
Our planting schemes combine aesthetic appeal with ecological sustainability. We select appropriate species for local conditions while creating year-round interest through texture, colour and seasonal variation. Detailed planting schedules ensure accurate implementation.
Outdoor Space Design
We transform outdoor areas into functional living spaces. Services include designing entertaining areas, pool surrounds and garden rooms. Our approach integrates architectural elements with natural features for cohesive, usable spaces.
Construction Documentation
We produce comprehensive technical drawings for construction purposes. This includes hard landscaping specifications, material selections and 3D visualisations. Documentation supports planning applications and contractor implementation.
