Richmond
Georgian walled garden
Brought back from years of neglect. The old brick walls were kept, climbers trained against them and drifts of narcissi planted beneath — a garden that looks as though it has stood as long as the house.
Residential Design & Build
Drawn and built by one team.
Garden design and construction for period homes across South West London and Surrey. The people who draw it are the people who build it.
Start to finish
Most gardens are designed by one firm and built by another. Detail is lost in the handover, and the client pays for it. We do both. Every drawing is made with the build in mind, and the build is run by the people who drew it — so the garden you approve is the garden you get.
How it works
From first visit to final planting.
01
Survey and brief
We start at the house. Levels, soil, light, access, and how you want to use the space. Then we agree what the garden has to do.
02
Design
Layout, materials and planting, drawn to suit the architecture. Every detail is resolved on paper before anything is built.
03
Build
Our own construction team. Groundwork, drainage, stonework and planting, in the right order and done once.
04
Aftercare
We look after what we build. The garden is kept by people who know how it was made.
Selected work
Gardens that look like they've always been there.
Barnes
Contemporary retreat
A 1950s extension had eaten this space. We took it down and built a sheltered sun-trap in its place, with rendered walls, concrete planters, tropical planting and stone slabs set in slate.
Wimbledon
Mediterranean terrace
A failed install by a previous contractor. We redesigned it and put the faults right. The brief was Ibiza: driftwood timber decking, framed by raised planters and relaxed, contemporary planting.
