WHEN GARDEN DESIGN FOCUSES ON QUICK FIXES, GARDENS OFTEN DON'T WORK

Many gardens in Kent are redesigned with an emphasis on hard landscaping, short-term impact or trends that don’t suit the soil, setting or long-term care of the space. Over time, this can lead to planting that fails to thrive, gardens that feel disjointed, and outdoor spaces that require increasing levels of intervention to look their best.

Good garden design should do the opposite. It should create structure, clarity and balance, allowing planting to mature naturally and the garden to become more beautiful, resilient and enjoyable year after year.

GARDEN DESIGN GUIDED BY HORTICULTURAL EXPERTISE

We provide professional garden design services across Kent, with a focus on plant-led design, long-term garden health and sustainability.

Our approach starts with understanding your garden as a living system, its soil, aspect, scale and existing features before developing a design that enhances what’s already there and creates a clear framework for the future. Rather than imposing a fixed style, we design gardens that feel natural to their setting and practical to maintain.

This results in gardens that are calm, cohesive and well-structured, with planting that performs reliably across the seasons.

OUR APPROACH
TO GARDEN DESIGN

Every garden design project is different, but our process is always considered and methodical.

Understanding your garden

We begin by assessing your garden’s conditions, layout and existing planting, as well as how the space is used. This allows us to design in a way that supports long-term plant health and avoids common issues caused by unsuitable planting or layout decisions.

Plant-led structure and layout

Planting plays a central role in our garden designs. We create clear structure using trees, shrubs and perennial planting to define spaces, provide seasonal interest and establish a strong backbone that develops over time.

Sustainable, regenerative principles

Our garden designs are informed by regenerative and organic principles. We prioritise soil health, plant resilience and biodiversity, creating gardens that require fewer chemical inputs and are better able to cope with changing conditions.

Designed for ongoing care

A successful garden design considers how the garden will be looked after. We design gardens that mature gracefully and can be maintained consistently, whether through professional garden maintenance or a combination of professional and owner-led care.

GARDEN DESIGN & PLANTING DESIGN FOR NEW &
EXISTING
GARDENS 

Much of our work involves designing gardens for established homes and larger properties across Kent. In these settings, clarity, cohesion and long-term planning are essential.

Rather than wholesale redesign, we often work to refine and enhance existing gardens - improving structure, rebalancing planting and creating stronger connections between different areas of the landscape.

This approach respects the maturity of the garden while allowing it to evolve in a more intentional and sustainable way.

A JOINED UP APPROACH FROM DESIGN &
LONG-TERM CARE

Garden design and planting design are closely connected, but not the same.

Garden design focuses on the overall layout, structure and spatial flow of the garden, while planting design refines how planting is used to support that structure and bring the garden to life across the seasons.

Depending on your needs, garden design may be combined with bespoke planting plans or delivered as part of a wider garden care and management approach.

A joined-up approach from design to long-term care

For many clients, garden design is the beginning of a longer relationship.

We are able to support gardens beyond the design stage through planting implementation, seasonal care and ongoing garden maintenance. This continuity ensures that the design intent is respected and that the garden develops as planned over time.
