Garden Design Packages
Full residential garden design, Silver from £1,750 and Gold from £2,950. From initial concept through to 3D walkthrough visuals (Gold) and contractor-ready construction drawings.
Planting Plans and Planting Design
Detailed, to-scale planting plans designed around your soil, aspect, microclimate and the way you actually want to live in the garden. Available as a standalone service or as part of a full design. From £25 per square metre of planted area.
Wellbeing Garden Design
Gardens designed deliberately to lower stress, lift mood and bring you closer to nature. Evidence-based, biophilic, built around how the space actually makes you feel. Same packages as our standard garden design, with a wellbeing brief woven in.
Therapy and Wellbeing Gardens for Healthcare
Evidence-based therapy gardens for care homes, hospices, dementia units, NHS sites and SEN schools across Yorkshire and the North. Feasibility study from £750.
School and Community Gardens
Outdoor learning spaces and community gardens for primary, secondary and SEN settings. Children in biophilic classrooms show learning rates improved by 20 to 25%, with reduced ADHD effects and better attendance.
Biophilic Design for Education
Indoor and outdoor biophilic design for schools, SEN provision and learning environments. Our work at the West Riding SEN provision in Barnsley shows what biophilic design can do for student wellbeing, focus and outcomes.
Living Walls
Interior and exterior living wall systems. Real and preserved plant walls for offices, schools, retail, hospitality and home interiors. P
Green Wall Panels
Modular green wall panels for clean, sustainable indoor green walls. Made from real or preserved plants, sustainably sourced. A practical alternative to a full living wall installation where maintenance access is limited.
New Build Garden Design
Garden design for new-build homes and the developers who build them. Compacted clay solved, blank canvas turned into a place you actually use. Silver from £1,750. Show garden design for developers quoted individually.
Project Oversight and Build Management
Hands-on oversight of your garden build by your designer. Site visits, plant sourcing, on-site decisions, snagging. The difference between a design on paper and a garden you love. £50 per hour, booked once your build timeline is agreed.
