With 40 year's experience, I create gardens which are immersive, ecologically driven, climate adapted and rich in diversity and beauty. Gardens are Nature's spring board into the next evolution of our ecosystems, all of which are in rapid flux as climate change becomes a major disruptor. Gardens I create are resilient and adapted to this new future: beautiful, useful, sheltering and peaceful.

I pay attention to your needs as the user of the space, utilising an understanding of design psychology to ensure the garden flows and moves in harmony, and that areas are zoned correctly to avoid conflicts of use. Style is applied once the ground rules are set.

Garden elements and plants must be pieced together with coherence to generate "critical mass.", which gives rise to timeless and intangible qualities. To give a garden good ecological balance, I beleive in never beautifying one environment at the expense of another and where possible, I observe the 80/20 rule: 80% softscape and 20% hardscape.
