01 Design & build

Landscape
design

Our gardens form a true extension of your living space.

We have an award-winning in-house design team, and work closely with other, equally decorated, independent designers.

Using natural materials and a nature-first approach, we bring our concepts to life with detailed master plans and clear visualisations. We specify levels, lighting, drainage, and planting schemes before a shovel hits the ground.

Our design
process

01-1 Initial consultation

We discuss your vision and practical requirements to co-create a brief for your project. We review your site, commission a topographical survey, and form a strategy to begin initial design concepts.

01-2 Concept development

We present a draft masterplan of your design to review and discuss. Consisting of both a 2D outline and 3D visualisations, we make sure the spatial layout of the site feels right and fits your needs.

01-3 Detailed design

Next we focus on the details, defining specific material choices and plant palettes. We create a construction plan with levels, retaining structures, and drainage requirements – allowing us to produce an accurate cost.

01-4 Construction package

Finally, we produce a series of technical drawings to begin the build process. This includes details for setting out, groundworks, hard landscaping, and a complete set of planting plans.

We can implement your project from start to finish.

Whether we are working from our designs, another landscape designer’s plans, or your own ideas, our team of highly-skilled trades have every base covered.

Our process is built on collaboration and clarity, providing customers with regular updates on timescales and budgets.
