If you are happy we can proceed. I will arrange to carry out a site analysis and survey of your garden, take soil samples, photographs and, if necessary, do a level survey. I will then have a detailed plan of the area to be designed as well as a note of all plants and features to be retained, your garden’s soil characteristics (pH, structure etc) and the topography and climate of your garden. With this information I can start designing. When the design is ready we will meet up again so that I can talk it through with you and any possible amendments can be addressed at this stage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1554829916951-BRC98TV7C82KB0XKFTQV/IMG_4515%2Bcopy.jpg Garden Design Process - The Plants A planting plan, if required, can be developed and presented to you, either with the design or at a later stage during construction. Plants included in the plan will be suitable for your soil type and for the aspect and climate of your garden. I can source the plants for you, arrange for their delivery and check their quality. I am also happy to arrange the planting and can produce a plant care schedule for you to follow if required. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556032146515-3OR3WQRPGWU70C21J3A2/IMG_1289.jpg Garden Design Process - Building Your Garden Assuming you wish to proceed with your new garden, I can help you obtain quotations from two or three contractors, or you may wish to organize the construction yourself. If required, I can be involved in regular site visits during construction to ensure the garden is being built to my design and to your satisfaction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556031939722-X2F04R0BELNLO28M8CO2/DSCF0759.jpg Garden Design Process - Initial Consultation The first step is for you to show me your garden and let me know what you have in mind. What do you want from your garden? A family garden? A wow factor? A quiet retreat? A haven for wildlife? What plant effects do you enjoy? Traditional cottage garden? Dramatic foliage? A riot of colour? Minimalist greens? It is very important that I gain a clear picture of your likes and dislikes at this stage - I will have a questionnaire for us to go through together which will help this process. We will also discuss what features should be incorporated into the design (paved area, water feature, pergola etc) and what sort of budget you have in mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556031521812-A1BP8P4595PMR2XNDZF6/IMG_8218.jpg Garden Design Process https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/projects daily 0.75 2019-04-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553080881706-RWI1R3CUUJ7BR331BZLO/garden_before_pic.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Herbaceous Border - Before https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556042294893-C1715KLIHG7Q9VTPVNWU/IMG_8218.JPG Examples of Past Projects - Herbaceous Border - After https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081678150-4203OG8J82M7NL9SK1TL/herbacious+border+before.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Before - April https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081678827-61Z19HN8OP6QDXMFBRSY/herbacious+border+planting.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Poor soil which needed improving https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081677789-JSXKY7M04UP3VEUM2EUK/herbacious+border+after.jpg Examples of Past Projects - After - June https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081440822-LJMCVQ8ZNZ05OLGZ995U/construction.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081431965-FJ42BZ5WVZOUPR14A0RO/prairie+year+1.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Year 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081432496-MWA0PBNFF7ZR8SVZ386H/Prairie+year+2.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Year 2 Late Summer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556037342560-7LCN28L1W4L9AHV08SQ9/DSCF7723-1.JPG Examples of Past Projects - Before https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081099822-GS2ITF6QFOG7NYKX1MXT/Steep+bank+planting.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Planting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081100318-EP8OEF5VE2E8TTZ1WAX1/Steep+bank+summer.jpg Examples of Past Projects - First Summer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081848356-QXY773PP5ALM0E3BLESH/contemporary+before.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Before https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556206305790-95HG61QXHSKFPVV10GCV/2R1A1584.jpg Examples of Past Projects - After Planting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553081894472-EP9Y8TZ3U48VCS7QE7DT/P1040031.jpeg Examples of Past Projects - First Summer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1556045105733-P4XVOXYR6726YJSDI3RF/IMG_1500.jpg Examples of Past Projects - Planting at RHS Chelsea Flower Show Some planting around ‘Leaf Spirit’ which I undertook for the Simon Gudgeon Sculpture stand at RHS Chelsea 2017 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553076295124-K7QA6YOJ5IR4PJQGOGI1/P1040031.jpeg Examples of Past Projects https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/about-me daily 0.75 2019-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c87b531f4e53143ffab9275/1553083309696-G2JQLUGUXYAEI1W7SPR8/Portrait.jpg About Me https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/contact daily 0.75 2019-07-23 https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/company-hayden daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1410210555855-N29TNUAMCINE2SQE73XN/Spaces05.jpg Company https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/read-me daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1412689652885-P9TPK298WCTZU748L0SG/Lifestyle03.jpg Read Me https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/team-hayden daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1412382359097-ID3SFF3357NY8R4RGDWU/image-asset.jpeg Team - Jared Gordon Partner, Architecture https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1412382331082-G9LIX1YE7FC69CB42GPM/image-asset.jpeg Team - Tessa Cortes Partner, Operations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1412382348403-WFE6SPPELX52N93S8VBS/image-asset.jpeg Team - Mikael Lindberg Partner, Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1396022200094-BHNZLTY2F80I074Y1FM6/image-asset.jpeg Team - Transient https://www.lauramasongardendesign.co.uk/careers-hayden daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1410211320490-406ZQFQSXK2C1HEM4F70/Wythe01.jpg Careers
