Our Process - A Tailored Approach
Our process is entirely bespoke and tailored to each client. We understand that every garden, brief, and starting point is different, so we adapt our approach to suit your needs - whether you’re at the very beginning of the design journey or ready to move forward with a detailed plan or construction. By remaining flexible and responsive, we’re able to support clients at any stage, delivering exactly the level of design and guidance required to move their project forward with clarity and confidence.
Initial Consultation
Discover the potential of your garden with a tailored on-site consultation. During this visit, we’ll explore your space, discuss your goals, style preferences, and budget, and assess any practical considerations such as levels, drainage, and sunlight. You’ll leave with clear, professional guidance, initial layout ideas, and practical recommendations to help you make informed decisions about your garden’s next steps. A follow-up summary ensures you have a concise record of all insights and suggestions.

Bring your garden vision to life with a professional 2D concept design. This package provides a detailed layout that considers zoning, circulation, levels, and key hardscape and softscape elements. We’ll create a clear plan showing how your space can be transformed, accompanied by material and mood references to help you visualise the overall style. One revision round ensures the design reflects your preferences while remaining practical and build-ready, giving you confidence before moving forward with construction or further design stages.
Concept Garden Design
Detailed Design (Build-Ready)
Turn your concept into a fully realised plan with a detailed, build-ready garden design. This package includes dimensioned layout plans, levels, hardscape specifications, and construction notes, ensuring every element can be implemented accurately and efficiently. Ideal for clients ready to tender or start construction, the detailed design provides clarity for contractors, confidence in your investment, and up to two revision rounds to refine the final plan.
Planting Schemes
Add life, colour, and seasonal interest to your garden with a professional planting design. We provide a complete planting layout, including species selection, sizes, quantities, and maintenance guidance tailored to your site and style. This ensures your garden is not only visually stunning but also sustainable and easy to care for throughout the year. Perfect as an add-on to your design or as a standalone service for planting-focused projects.
3D Visualisations
See your garden before a single stone is laid with realistic 3D visualisations. Using your approved concept or detailed design, we create perspective views that bring your project to life, helping you understand scale, materials, and atmosphere. Ideal for high-end projects or clients who want to visualise their garden with confidence, each view includes one minor revision, making it a valuable tool for decision-making and presentation.
Project Management & Build
With your design complete, you’re ready to move forward with the construction of your garden. At this stage, you have complete flexibility in how you proceed. You may choose to work with our experienced landscaping team to bring the design to life, benefiting from a seamless transition from design to build.
Alternatively, we’re happy to recommend trusted landscaping contractors we know and work alongside, or you’re free to take your completed designs and move forward with a contractor of your choice, whenever it suits you. Our designs are clear, detailed, and build-ready, giving you confidence and freedom in how your project is delivered.
Our Design Packages
Every garden starts with a clear plan. Our design packages are structured to suit different stages of your project, whether you’re exploring ideas, preparing for construction, or looking for a complete, end-to-end design experience. Each package is built on practical construction knowledge, ensuring your garden is not only beautifully designed but also realistic, cost-aware, and ready to be built with confidence.
