Garden & Landscape Design
How would you describe your style?
"Underpinning all of our work is a carefully considered restraint which embraces and frames the soft irregularities of the natural world. Each project is guided by its environment and brief, helping to drive our design process. Drawing from many influences and experiences, we are continually learning and re-evaluating, as we make decisions that lead to the expression of the elements - texture, light and movement."

"The garden in the first image is set on the side of a hill, surrounded by mature trees with a belt of woodland to the rear, and open countryside beyond. The design intent was to manipulate the topography of the site to ensure the space is beautiful and usable, whilst creating a link in scale from the modernist house to the wider countryside. The design response was required to relate to, and acknowledge the architectural language of the building. The strong lines and bold geometries are intentionally reminiscent of the modernist movement. The terraces are linked by staggered, pristine limestone steps with clipped hedging softening the edges. The terraced lawns are punctuated by sculptural multi-stem tree forms, and flanked on one side by a planting bed of textural grasses interspersed with ornamental perennials, and on the other by topiary forms. The other images show recently completed gardens."
