My inspiration comes mainly from the relationship of the garden to its natural surroundings and to the architecture of the buildings within it. I have no particular design style, but my approach is, above all, to listen and work closely with my client, assess how the space is to be used, and to work with and not against nature. Sustainable gardening is becoming more and more important, and my gardens aim to achieve this where possible. A love of structure and form of plants, combined with a use of colour and texture, is evident in my work at all times.
