Garden & Landscape Design

How would you describe your style?

"For us a good garden design is all about teamwork and communication, working with the client to produce a garden that engages and delights them. This means our designs are all primarily the result of collaboration between client, designer, and contractor. 

We are drawn to classical and contemporary influences to create timelessly elegant gardens with structure, softened by a palette of herbaceous flowers and shrubs. Symmetry is also important to us, coupled with a sense of balance, proportion, and scale, resulting in gardens that are both harmonious and handsome."

Please describe a recently completed project or tell us about the bespoke service that you offer

"From country houses to the London town gardens, Richard and his team of talented designers and landscape architects have over 70 years of experience designing and overseeing the construction of gardens for discerning clients.  

We offer personalised design, providing a seamless service from conception to completion. To provide continuity for our clients each project has a designated lead point. Richard is however always on hand to oversee the outputs personally. This ensures, as one recent client put it, the ‘Miers Magic’ to each design.   

Our portfolio includes a range of projects including an RHS Chelsea Flower Show Main Avenue Garden, winner of the People’s Choice Award; country gardens for Grade 1 listed houses in Norfolk and Buckinghamshire; a 15-acre garden for a newly built Palladian mansion in Surrey and countless town gardens and roof terraces in London. An insight into our portfolio is below."
