Hello…

I’m Katy, a garden and planting designer based in Hove.

I have a background in visual design and a passion for creating beautiful, meaningful outdoor spaces. After years working as a graphic designer,
I retrained in garden design to bring my love of nature and strong sense
of composition, colour, and form into a new creative direction.

My approach is collaborative and client-focused. I believe the best gardens come from a genuine connection, taking the time to understand how you want to use your space, what inspires you and how a garden can support your lifestyle. Every project is a partnership, and I aim to create gardens that feel personal, practical, and full of character.

In addition to design, I also offer garden photography, capturing the atmosphere and detail of your garden as it grows and evolves. It’s a natural extension of my visual background and a lovely way to document the story of your outdoor space.

Let’s work together to create a garden that truly feels like home.

Testimonials

  • I visited a friend a few months ago who had recently had her courtyard garden redone and it was so pretty I asked if she could recommend the designer to me. I subsequently met Katy and over the last few months, she has transformed my own courtyard garden into a really beautiful space. Katy designed it, advised on plants, prepared a planting plan and then bought and planted everything for me. She was so easy to work with, had lots of lovely ideas and nothing was too much trouble for her. I am delighted to be able to recommend her.

  • Katy met with us and talked through in depth what we were hoping for. She then designed, ordered and planted up our newly built terrace garden from scratch. She sent detailed plans of everything she was to use so we knew exactly what we were getting. We were absolutely thrilled with the result. Nothing was too much trouble and Katy delivered on exactly what we wanted. Always friendly, approachable and happy to respond to any questions or concerns. We would never have achieved the fantastic outdoor space we now enjoy without her. Thank you Katy!

  • Katy has designed a beautiful garden for us. During planning, she took my scattered thoughts and translated them into a cohesive design and planting plan that works all year round. The garden is abundant with clever design and beautiful planting. I can't recommend her highly enough.
