Garden design that brings life to gardens
Expert garden design and planting design services
About House of Stewart Gardens
Our Philosophy
At House of Stewart Gardens we believe passionately that our gardens should enhance our lives and the natural world around us.
We design for aesthetic appeal, emotional feel and biodiversity enhancement. We use materials, planting, texture, light and scent to create atmospheric, wildlife rich spaces that transform how we feel.
Our Expertise
Founded by Ben Stewart, graduate of the London College of Garden Design, we are a garden and planting design studio based in Surrey. We offer a full garden design service from initial ideas and visualisation through to construction drawings, planting design, and project monitoring.
We have the expertise to handle any project, large or small. From urban front and rear gardens to large country gardens. Gardens with steep slopes to gardens with challenging drainage, we have the skills and contacts to bring your garden to life.
How we work
Step 1: The brief
After an initial consultation where we talk through what you are looking for, we produce a simple brief to summarise our discussion and explain the process and design costs.
How we work
Step 2: Masterplan design
Before we begin developing a design we do a thorough site analysis and commission a topographical survey if required.
Then the design work begins. Based on our agreed brief we develop a design concept, mood board and a masterplan design for your garden. This will be brought to life with 3D visuals.
How we work
Step 3: Detail drawings
We then produce the detailed drawings required to bring the design to life including planting design plans, and construction drawings.
This is essential for a landscaper to understand the design in detail to be able to cost the project accurately.
How we work
Step 4: The build
We work alongside the landscaper monitoring the progress of the project and working together to deliver the garden design.
Our Sustainability Practices
We see every project as an opportunity to enrich the local environment by increasing biodiversity and wildlife appeal.
We are committed to using sustainable practices in all of our projects.. From using locally sourced materials where possible to implementing water-saving techniques. We strive to minimise our impact on the environment while creating beautiful outdoor spaces.
