We create distinctive, individual gardens that harmonise with their surroundings. Our approach combines intelligent planting and hard construction to craft spaces that work effectively, and feel good to inhabit.

We listen carefully to clients’ requirements, and respond with creativity and technical skill. Problematic and challenging sites are treated as design opportunities.

We offer a complete design process, from initial consultation, concept plan, developed design and specification, through to tender. We can advise on choice of contractor, and (if desired) can also advise the client during the construction process.

We can also provide stand-alone services, such as master planning or planting design.

Based in Hexham, Northumberland, we accept commissions across Northern England and Scotland. Enquiries are welcomed by phone or email – contact details below.
