Practice
A single practice. Ten disciplines.
We are designers and builders in equal measure. Every commission begins with the same set of disciplines, applied at the scale the brief requires.
S-01
Landscape Architecture
Strategic design from site reading to documentation.
S-02
Landscape Construction
In-house construction by trades trained within the studio.
S-03
Residential Gardens
Private gardens designed to be inherited rather than refreshed.
S-04
Pools & Outdoor Living
Water as material, integrated into the landscape from the first sketch.
S-05
Natural Stone Installation
Specialist stonemasonry: dry-laid walls, paving, junctions, edges.
S-06
Feature Tree Procurement
Sourcing, selection, and supervision of mature specimen trees.
S-07
Master Planning
Long-form planning for rural estates and multi-stage commissions.
S-08
Planting Design
Botanical strategy: structural, seasonal, indigenous, and matured.
S-09
Landscape Consultation
Short-form advisory engagements, including for built work.
S-10
Construction Management
Owner's-side oversight of complex landscape construction.

Plant physiology · Conceptual specimen
Stoma / Gas exchange
The intelligence
of a living landscape.
An invisible column of water.
Water enters through roots and moves up the xylem. Evaporation from leaves creates tension that pulls this continuous column upwards — the cohesion–tension mechanism.
When soil dries, stomata can close to conserve water. This also restricts the carbon dioxide available for photosynthesis.

Illustrative relationships, not measured values or species-specific predictions. Actual responses depend on temperature, soil, species and plant health.
