Create a modern,
and low maintenance garden.
We help homeowners reclaim their gardens with our garden design services covering Nottingham, Leicester & Derby.
Your garden holds promise, but let's face it – it's not living up to its potential.
It feels cramped, disorganised, and far from the functional outdoor space you envision. Instead of being a place for relaxation and enjoyment, it's become a source of frustration and neglect.
You've put off dealing with the situation, hoping it would somehow improve on its own. Yet, each time you step outside, the reality hits you – your garden is a missed opportunity. You dream of quiet mornings sipping coffee amidst lush greenery or hosting family gatherings but the current state of your outdoor space only brings disappointment.
That’s where we come in. We can design your ordinary outdoor space into a practical and beautiful garden that suits your lifestyle.
Making maintenance a breeze, parties a delight, and relaxation guaranteed.
Hi, we’re Jake & Taylor!
We have been designing gardens since 2017. Over the years, we have had the privilege of crafting hundreds of unique gardens across the Midlands region. Each project has taught us something invaluable about what makes a garden truly special.
Through this journey, we have come to understand that a garden isn't just a collection of plants and paths—it's an extension of the home, a place where you can relax, entertain, and make lasting memories. We know the ultimate use case for many gardens: a retreat from the world, a space for family gatherings, or simply a quiet corner to enjoy a cup of coffee.
What sets us apart is our deep understanding of crafting beautiful but functional gardens perfectly suited to your lifestyle. Our designs are tailored to bring you joy, reduce your stress, and make maintenance effortless.
“Absolutely blown away with our 3D presentation. Taylor and Jake have been amazing from start to finish of the design process and I can't wait to see our design transform. They are both very professional and I would not hesitate in recommending these two for your next project.”
Becky Taylor, Burbage
“The modern outlook we wanted to create was exactly what we were given. Being able to see the visuals both day and night helped us immensely. Taylor took the time to go through the sample products so we understood the different textures and explained the construction drawings in detail.”

Stage 1: Free Initial Consultation
We start by delving into your unique garden aspirations through a personalised consultation, conducted via an online meeting platform such as Google Meets. This initial session is tailored to your schedule, allowing us to discuss your specific project requirements and gain insight into your vision for your garden. We encourage you to share any photos or videos of your current space, as well as your ideas and preferences for its transformation. Our aim is to understand your needs fully and lay the groundwork for a collaborative design journey. Throughout the consultation, we'll provide examples of our previous work to inspire and inform your decision-making process.
Stage 2: Site Survey & Analysis
Following the initial consultation, we'll arrange an in-person visit to your garden. During this visit, our design team will further explore your vision, offering professional insights while on-site. Additionally, a specialist surveyor will take precise measurements of your garden, essential for producing an accurate design.
Stage 3: Studio Visit & 3D Design
Once your concept design is ready, we’ll schedule a virtual consultation to present our initial 2D ideas and ensure they align with your vision. After any necessary revisions, we'll invite you to our chosen venue at Burrough Court, south of Nottingham, for an in-depth exploration of the design. At this stage, we’ll convert the 2D concepts into immersive 3D visuals and produce a planting plan offering a comprehensive view of your garden. We’ll also discuss our design choices and provide expert recommendations on material selections, all while you enjoy a warm coffee or a chilled beverage.
Stage 4: Design Handover
Once the design is finalised, we'll compile your bespoke garden plans into a comprehensive design pack. This includes proposing our planting plans along with a schedule for implementation. Additionally, we will recommend and arrange a meeting with a suitable landscaper to ensure a smooth transition from design to execution.

The timeline for each design project varies based on its scale, budget, and complexity. Generally, our projects take approximately 12 weeks from the initial start, excluding the time needed for arranging surveys, meetings, and site visits.
After the site survey, you can expect an initial proof of concept within two weeks. For the full project timeline, we usually plan for an 8–16 week duration, though certain factors—such as obtaining planning approvals or managing complex design requirements, can extend this timeframe.
We recommend starting the design process early, as this allows us to schedule and budget more effectively, ensuring a seamless project experience for you.
-
After finalising your garden design, we will produce a full schedule for your gardens planting requirements alongside a quotation for this work to be completed.
We'll also connect you with a trusted local contractor who has the expertise to handle the specifics of your project. Together, we'll conduct a site visit to discuss the technicalities and ensure alignment with the design vision. This collaboration enables the contractor to develop a detailed scope of work tailored to your project's requirements.
Our landscapers and specialists are typically available for projects every 3-6 months, depending on factors such as team size and the availability of the recommended contractor. It's important to note that a reputable contractor is likely to have a busy schedule, which often indicates their credibility and demand for quality work. Therefore, scheduling may require flexibility to seamlessly bring your garden design to life to a high standard.
-
Our design projects generally start at around 50 square meters, although this can vary depending on factors such as location, budget, and specific design needs.
Typically, we undertake projects with a landscaping budget of £30,000 or more. If your budget falls below this threshold or is particularly tight, we recommend engaging a skilled landscaper for your project while still benefiting from our free resources.
