If your garden is a blank canvas, Gardens Of Eden also design whole masterplans to designate areas for planting, paths, seating areas and more. We liaise with local landscapers and builders to build the gardens and can then provide planting design in-house to finish up.
We design and build gardens mostly in the Cornwall area but will consider design work from further afield.

The Garden Design Method: Note: some gardens may only require a planting plan and would therefore skip stage 4. Method can be flexible to suit needs of the client. Stage 1: Initial consultation We look at the space and discuss wants needs and preferences, this discussion forms part of the brief. Stage 2: General Arrangement We take rouge measurements and compose a rough general arrangement to differentiate between hard and soft landscaping and general layout of the proposed design. Stage 3: Site Survey and Soil test Soil analysis will take place to establish PH and consistency of the soil as well as a measuring the area. Aspect will be noted as well as any micro-climates and existing vegetation. Stage 4: Master Plan A scale master plan will be provided using AutoCAD which sets out layout, main structural features, soft and hard landscaping. Stage 5: Build We liaise with local builders and landscapers to begin construction of any hard landscaping Stage 6: Planting plan(s), Elevations and Design Details Once a master plan has been approved work can begin on detailed planting plans, elevations and any design details Stage 7: Planting/mulching This can be done by clients or other contractors or in-house. |
