Services
We are a small landscape design practice providing artistic intuition, technical expertise in construction and practical experience as landscape gardeners. We believe in being sensitive to the requirements of architecture and interior style and the natural call of the surroundings. Our approach aims to create a harmonious transition from interior to exterior and from there to the wider landscape.
We like to remain involved with the garden where possible over the subsequent years to advise on its development alongside clients and gardeners. Frequency may vary from one day a month to a single annual visit to monitor the gardens growth. In addition we can also supply maintenance programmes and can recommend tree and lawn specialists to provide annual maintenance care.
From the best UK and European trade nurseries to ensure quality stock. We are able to pass on discounts particularly on trees, specimen shrubs and hedging material. We can recommend furniture companies, suppliers of ornamental objects and planters and also sculpture if you are interested. We usually bring in companies for quotation and installation.
