About Grounded Landscape Design
Grounded Landscape Design was established to provide thoughtful, practical garden design for homeowners across Somerset, Devon, and Dorset.
Founded by Gary, the Design brings together over 25 years of professional landscaping experience with a passion for creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.
Having spent decades designing and building gardens, Gary understands that great garden design must do more than simply look impressive on paper. It must respond to the property, suit the way you live, and be carefully considered from both a creative and practical perspective.
This unique combination of design expertise and construction knowledge ensures that every project is both inspiring and expertly buildable.
A Practical Approach to Garden Design
Every garden presents its own opportunities, challenges, and character.
Whether working with a newly built property, a period home, or a mature established landscape, Gary takes time to understand each client’s aspirations, priorities, and lifestyle.
The goal is always the same: to create a garden that feels natural, purposeful, and perfectly suited to the people who will enjoy it.
Beautiful design should never come at the expense of practicality. A successful garden must work effortlessly in everyday life while continuing to provide enjoyment for years to come.
Experience That Makes a Difference
Few garden designers have extensive hands-on experience in both design and construction.
Gary’s background in professional landscaping provides valuable insight throughout the design process, helping clients avoid costly mistakes and ensuring designs can be delivered smoothly by the appointed contractor.
This practical understanding often proves invaluable, particularly when dealing with complex sites, level changes, drainage considerations, and construction detailing.
Working With Clients
Garden design is a collaborative process.
From the initial consultation through to the finished design, Gary works closely with each client to ensure the final scheme reflects their vision, complements their property, and enhances the way they use their outdoor space.
Every project is approached with care, creativity, and close attention to detail.
Beyond the Drawing Board
A garden is more than a collection of plants and materials. It is an extension of your home—a place for relaxing, entertaining, and connecting with the outdoors.
Grounded Landscape Design creates gardens that are elegant, practical, and designed for real life.
