My studio is client-led and site-responsive. Instead of focusing on a single signature style, I use my years of training to create a truly individual space for each client.
My job is to balance your unique needs and aesthetic preferences with what the land and microclimates are able to give —ensuring your garden has the best chance to thrive long term.
To ensure pricing clarity, I price for services by m2.
For whole garden consultations and concept designs, this is based on the total garden area you would like evaluated/designed.
For planting designs and specialist maintenance plans, I will measure the area using a measuring wheel, and you will pay only for the extent of the living spaces.
