Frequently Asked Questions

  • A successful garden design has a strong sense of place and connection with its surroundings, both natural and manmade. It is bespoke, and its uniqueness lies in the connection between the natural world and the way it is shaped by humans. Our experience in a garden is fully sensory, and reliant on how we interact with textures, smells, sounds and atmosphere of the space. AI is a hugely useful tool for aspects of garden maintenance and planning, but the personal story of a garden's transformation exists in the physicality of a garden and being present in that space.

  • We understand how useful it is to have a good idea of cost from the start. Our fee proposal is transparent about which costs are fixed and within our control, and which are variable and subject to the price of materials at the time of supply.

  • Each of our projects is bespoke and unique. We work with each client to agree a realistic timeframe for delivery, sensitive to both client needs and nature's cycles.

  • As garden designers, we develop the designs and plans that a landscape contractor will need to build your garden. We can support you in selecting a contractor for your project and monitor the build phase as needed.

  • Regrettably, we do not provide garden maintenance services.

  • We are based in Pangbourne, near Goring-on-Thames, the towns of Henley-on Thames and Newbury are within easy reach. We are ideally located for garden projects in Berkshire, South Oxfordshire, North Hampshire and West Wiltshire. We are happy to travel and take commissions from further afield.
