Gardens are our private sanctuaries, an expression of our personal style and a valued asset.
Gardens help us unwind and relax. They are a place for fun, recreation and celebration with family, friends, pets and our wider community.

Get in touch about your project

I am a landscape architect who uses sustainable design principles, plants, materials and principles that won’t further harm the environment. I specialise in garden and pool design and have produced landscape plans for commercial projects and planning applications.

I enjoy collaborating with my clients to understand your needs so we can create designs for beautiful, sustainable and useable outdoor spaces, no matter how big or small.

Do you have ideas but are wondering where to start? I can help you identify what you want from your garden, see how to make the most of what you currently have and develop a creative design to plan your dream garden into the future.

Let’s get started together!

FEES

Costs will depend on your brief and the size and complexity of your project. The first step is a discussion on the phone, followed by a garden consultation to meet and discuss your needs. Garden consultations and site visits are $180. After this visit I will provide you with return brief and a fee estimate for my services.

Other costs along the way may include an arborist, a licenced surveyor, engineering and landscape construction costs.
