Our philosophy

A garden is the one thing you can build that is more finished in ten years than it is on the day we leave.
Eleanor Roy, founding designer

How we work

One studio, from first sketch to last stone.

We listen

We listen

Every project starts on site, on foot. We walk the ground, read the light, and ask how you want to live outside.

We design

We design

Hand drawings first, then planting plans and material boards. You see the finished garden before we lift a shovel.

We build

We build

Our own crews lay every stone and set every plant. One team, start to finish, accountable for the result.

Materials

Honest, local, built to weather.

Local limestone

Quarried within two hours of London, dry-laid for paths and seat walls.

FSC white oak

Slow-grown hardwood, oiled not stained, for furniture and pergolas.

Native perennials

Grown from regional seed, chosen to thrive without irrigation.

Reclaimed brick

Salvaged from old London buildings, given a second life underfoot.
