How would you describe your style?
"Serene – the studio loves creating spaces that our clients can go into and just breathe. Each garden is plant infused, with thoughtful hard-landscaping details complemented by generous and often low-maintenance planting schemes. Our approach emphasises layering textures of soft and hard-landscaping to create spaces that are as captivating as they are tranquil. We work with each client as an individual to create a space that works for them and their lifestyle."

Bedfordshire Garden
The studio recently completed the relocation of its RHS Chelsea Flower Show gold-medal-winning garden. The Sue Ryder Grief Kind Garden was relocated to Sue Ryder St John’s Hospice in Bedford and is now a dedicated garden space for hospice users, their families, staff and the community to use. The garden is layered with sensory plants and creates an inviting and safe space for year-round use. It celebrates the countryside views and blends seamlessly into the wider landscape.
Clapham Garden
The transformation of the front and back gardens of this London townhouse mirrors the extensive internal renovation. The elegant back garden seamlessly blends the indoor and outdoor spaces, whilst the front garden offers a chic and inviting entrance.
