	My approach to effective and successful garden design is based around: Successful interpretation of the client’s wishes and aspirations Being responsive to the existing architecture and surrounding area Innovative resolution of issues and requirements Creating functional, attractive and workable spaces The combination of all these things leads to the creation of a visually stunning, highly individualised and practical garden based on the client's original brief.

	My philosophy is based upon finding innovative solutions. For example, in smaller spaces I have incorporated vertical planting schemes including herb and salad walls combined with insect hotels. These create a natural ecosystem as well as adding interest through sculptural elements.

	I am particularly interested in natural, edible and wildlife friendly plants and I have assisted schools to develop stimulating and interactive environments for children. So that they can learn through watching and tending to their gardens.

	I work closely with a number of nurseries, craftspeople and suppliers, which helps to ensure that the completed garden is of the highest quality.
