We’ll discuss your vision and needs, and take the time to observe the land, how it sits within its setting, and where the possibilities lie.
Following this meeting, we share a design proposal with a tailored brief, fee structure, outline of our process, and a suggested timeline.
A topographical survey is carried out to capture the essential details of the land (contours, trees, structures, and services) which becomes the base of our design work.
Every Concept Design is completely bespoke. We present mood boards and design proposals, including plan drawings and 3D visuals, helping you begin to visualise the atmosphere, tone and rhythm of your future garden.
Together, we refine layouts and materials, explore lighting, structures and furniture, and develop a more complete picture of the garden’s look and feel.
At this stage, aesthetic choices are settled, ready to move into technical design.
We prepare a full technical drawing package for tender and construction - setting out every measurement, level, and specification to ensure the garden can be built with clarity and precision.
We also coordinate drawings with lighting designers, engineers or other consultants as needed. A thoughtful, thorough phase - essential to delivering a high-quality result.
We work closely with you on each part of the planting palette: from overall mood and colour to detailed combinations and structure. Finalised planting plans are drawn up showing every species, quantity and size - ready for costing, sourcing and setting out.
We source each plant with care and are always present on site for the final set-out and planting.
... Teams we trust and who share our commitment to detail and craftsmanship. Once quotes are returned, we review and guide you through the appointment process.
During construction, we remain closely involved - making regular site visits to ensure the design is followed precisely, solve any challenges, and support good communication between all parties.
After completion, we offer optional aftercare visits to ensure the planting establishes well and continues to thrive. It’s always a pleasure to return and see the garden settle into place.
