Now, your garden

See it in your space.

Upload a photo of your garden and our design studio will create concepts within it, working with your walls, your light and your view.

The images below all started with the same courtyard. Each was simply asked for differently.

The design is generated by our studio from your photo: an honest, indicative concept, confirmed on a site visit before anything is built.

Sheet 04 / Built

Built for company

Something to walk down to on a cold evening, and a reason for friends to stay late. Two benches face each other, so nobody has their back to the conversation, with a seat either side of the door for cooling off.

Describe your garden

A few plain words is enough. The studio turns them into a first design, and we confirm it on a site visit before anything is built.

  • Drawn for one garden and built once, to your space and the way you will use it.
  • Designed and built from our Gloucestershire workshop. Installed across England and Wales.
  • One team from the first sketch to the last screw, electrics included.

An indicative concept, not a final quote. More

This is an indicative concept, not a final quote. Final pricing and feasibility depend on a site survey: access, base preparation, electrical requirements, drainage, and your final specification. Electrical work is assessed and completed by a registered electrician. Planning status depends on site-specific conditions including size, height, boundary position, and any local restrictions.
