About
Multidisciplinary thinking and collaboration are at the heart of the studio.
We believe gardens should tell a story - about the people the garden is for and the values they hold dear. And in today’s world, it goes without saying that gardens should contribute positively to the environment they’re in.
Design inspiration comes from everywhere - art, textiles, a treasured poem or a favourite place. We pride ourselves on reaching beyond the world of horticulture and landscape design to bring projects and ideas to life. We work closely with a broad network of collaborators and alongside our clients to develop a garden that feels personal, works intuitively with their lives and most importantly, is somewhere they love being.
Lottie started working life in textile design and spent six years living and working in South-East Asia working in fashion and homewares. On returning to the UK, Lottie retrained in Garden Design at the Inchbald School of Design, graduating with Distinction. Since then she has been working on gardens around the UK, from small urban spaces to historic estates and commercial developments. Lottie is passionate about connecting people to the natural world and using gardens to tell a story.
In May 2022, Lottie completed her first show garden at RHS Chelsea, and was awarded a Silver Gilt medal for her garden “A Textile Garden for Fashion Revolution”.
She has been featured widely in the press, regularly contributes to articles and writes for House & Garden. Lottie is also a trustee of We Are Grow, a charity working with schools & communities delivering programmes in sustainable food growing & outdoor learning.
The studio is in an old printworks in Somerset but we welcome projects from London and further afield.
Each project we work on is unique and we value input from a wide range of disciplines, from ecologists, architects, artists, furniture-makers and horticulturalists.
We have developed a broad network of trusted suppliers, contractors and collabrators around the country who help bring designs to life. We work closely with them throughout the design, development and build, through to the the final delivery of the project.
