Investment in Professional Garden Design

Every garden I design is bespoke — shaped by the site, the architecture, the client's lifestyle, and long-term sustainability considerations.

My fees reflect the time, expertise, and strategic thinking involved in creating a garden that functions well, ages beautifully, and supports both people and nature. Clear pricing also helps clients decide early on whether professional garden design is the right investment for their project.

Is this service right for you?

My work is best suited to clients who:

want a well-considered, site-specific garden rather than a standard solution
value professional guidance through complex design decisions
are looking for long-term quality, not short-term fixes
understand that good design saves time, money, and frustration during construction

If you are looking for quick sketches, DIY layouts, or the lowest-cost option, this service may not be the right fit.

Initial Consultation

The initial consultation is a paid, professional service and forms the first step in the design process.

This meeting allows us to discuss your site, requirements, and priorities in detail, and to assess whether professional garden design is the right fit for your project. It also ensures that any proposal you receive is based on a clear understanding of the scope and level of input required.

Fee: £100 – £200 [590 - 1,765 RON], depending on:

project location
consultation format (on site or online)
level of preparation required

The consultation fee is confirmed in advance when the meeting is arranged.

In some cases, the consultation fee may be offset against a full design commission.

Projects in the UK and Romania

I work on residential garden projects in both the UK and Romania.

project location
local construction practices
site visit requirements
level of ongoing involvement

A tailored proposal is always provided following an initial discussion.

What clients gain from professional garden design

clarity before construction begins
fewer costly mistakes on site
better coordination between design and build
a garden that matures well over time
a space that supports daily life, biodiversity, and long-term enjoyment

Next steps

If you feel your project aligns with this approach, I would be happy to discuss it further.

The next step is an initial conversation to understand your site, goals, and scope of work. Following this, you will receive a clear proposal outlining fees and deliverables.
