Full Garden Design
Full garden designs include hard and soft landscaping.
They include drawings which are an essential part of the design process and enable the garden to be built exactly as you would like it.
All elements of the drawings are labelled and include technical information, where required.

"I can help you to create a beautiful space that meets your needs and appeals to the wildlife that shares it"
The design process starts with you
We meet up and have a chat about what you expect from your new garden. Ideally this is face to face but I am more than happy to arrange this virtually if you prefer. This initial consultation will help me identify exactly how you would like the garden to function and the style of garden you prefer, that fits within your budget.
If you are happy to work with me, I will be in touch to arrange the site survey.
Lets see how the land lies
A site survey will be carried out to assess the existing features of the garden and site conditions such as soil, aspect, topography and any other factors that may affect the design.
I will look closely at the wildlife and plants already there.
Larger or more complex sites may require a professional surveyor.
Bringing the garden to life
Mood boards are a form of visual stimulus and help bring the garden to life. A concept plan and perspective sketch will identify the proposed areas and help you visualise the new garden.
Getting techy
Once you are 100% happy with my proposals, I can prepare the master plan from which all working plans are produced. These include construction drawings, lighting plans (if required) and planting plans, which are produced on CAD. These are fundamental to the garden being successfully built as you would like it. The drawings can be handed to your chosen landscaper for a quote or I can recommend a landscaper for you.

Ground Force
Planting up the new garden is an exciting part of the design process and adds the finishing touches to the design. Plants are carefully chosen to harmonise with the surroundings and features of the property, and more importantly, to encourage more wildlife!
