What I really liked about this piece is that they interviewed the client directly to get their perspective on the garden. From a landscape gardeners perspective it was quite a challenge blending the contrasting materials […]

Not to mention giving you a real warm welcome feeling when you arrive home after a hard day. Most often people feel that the front garden doesn’t matter so […]

Any landscaper will tell you that a single bold statement feature can hold together an entire garden. This project involved taking into consideration three major points of view. First was a 6m wide set of bifold doors framing the view from the kitchen, which really is the center of this home, plus two separate seating […]

There are a lot of landscapers out there to chose from, which one is right for you? To some extent that will depend of the nature of your project, if you just want something to tidy the place up, put down some gravel and cut back the forest of brambles at the end of the […]

I was privileged to be able to design a series of gardens and features at this prestigious property, including extensive new tree planting, meadow areas, four small formal gardens and a tree lined avenue. However the feature that I enjoyed designing the most is this devilishly deceptive maze.
