Our process for Garden Design in Esher

Designing a garden well takes a clear, considered process. Every garden we work on follows the same six stages, from the first phone call through to the day the planting goes in. It keeps things straightforward, gives you regular opportunities to feed in, and means you always know what's happening next.

1. Phone Call

Get in touch to book a quick, informal phone call. We'll talk about your garden ideas and check if we're the right fit for your garden design project.

2. Home Visit

We provide a complementary visit to your garden to understand the space, take photos, and discuss your goals in detail.

3. 3D Outline

We create an outline design using 3D modelling and high end rendering software, including layout ideas, planting styles, materials, and mood boards.

4. Feedback

Your feedback shapes the final design. We fine-tune layouts, features, and soft landscape areas, ensuring everything meets your vision and practical needs.

5. Design Pack

You’ll receive a full design pack with detailed plans, layout drawings, planting lists, and materials - so your landscaper has everything needed to build your garden.

6. Implement

We can recommend trusted landscapers or support your chosen team. If needed, we offer extra help during the build to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Large Garden Design Esher

Large Garden Design Esher

Larger gardens in Esher often come with mature trees and an established feel worth keeping. We design in clear zones, entertaining terraces, generous planting, lawn and quieter corners, then knit them together with routes and sight lines that make the whole plot feel intentional. Strong structure and biodiverse planting keep a large Esher garden feeling settled rather than showy.

Small Garden Design Esher

Smaller Esher gardens, whether behind a period terrace or within a newer development, get the same level of design thought as the big plots. Every surface, line and plant has to earn its place, so we focus on smart layouts, built-in storage and seating, and layered planting that makes the finished Esher garden feel far bigger than its footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you based in Esher?

I am based in Beckenham, designing gardens across London and Kent, including Esher.

Can the design give us more privacy from neighbouring homes?

Yes. Privacy is one of the most common briefs we get. Pleached trees, layered evergreen screening, well-placed structures and clever sight lines can all make an overlooked garden feel enclosed and private, without resorting to a fortress of fencing that darkens the whole space.

Do you work alongside architects on renovation or extension projects?

Yes, and it works brilliantly when the garden is designed at the same time as the building work. We coordinate with your architect so levels, access, drainage and views from the new spaces all line up, and the garden feels like part of the project rather than an afterthought.
