Comprehensive Garden Design
in-person design service
Our comprehensive design service is perfect for those looking for a complete approach that takes care of every detail, from start to finish.
Whether for a private, commercial or community project, we'll work closely with you throughout to design an outdoor space that works perfectly for you. Alongside a creative and considered approach, you’ll receive everything needed to bring your project to life, including detailed construction drawings, planting plans, and material specifications, ready for use by contractors and suppliers to deliver the design to the highest quality.
This service is delivered in person whenever possible, with some meetings or presentations held remotely for projects further afield.
“Rosie's creativity and sensitivity to the house and landscape helped to create a truly beautiful design that we are immensely proud of.”
