Find out about our process

‘We are thrilled with our new garden! Yasemin took a cold, damp uninviting garden and turned it into a beautiful, social space that is like an extra room to our house as it flows so seamlessly from our kitchen. The process was very easy with Yasemin managing it all from start to finish and she has superb attention to detail, thinking of things we wouldn't have considered. Her recommendations for plants were spot on for the type of garden we have and over time it is all maturing beautifully. We couldn't have asked for more!’

– E. Cotter
'It was an absolute pleasure working with Yasemin. She took time from the very start to listen to how we planned as a family to use the garden and the kind of feel we were trying to achieve. We were amazed by the designs that Yasemin created for us, she came up with beautiful ideas that we would never have thought of without her. All of which were produced on full-coloured CAD drawings, so we could totally visualise how the overall scheme would look. Yasemin was also incredibly patient throughout the process and happy to adapt the plans, as new ideas arose and to fine tune it until it was perfect. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend working with Yasemin.’
