Landscape Architects and Garden Designers

Georgia Lindsay is an experienced Garden Designer based in London, transforming gardens since 2010 with a portfolio of work including urban roof terraces, family gardens, large country gardens and NHS therapy gardens. Georgia prides herself on having good working relationships with landscape contractors and professionals in the field to produce beautifully well thought-out gardens and ultimately happy clients! "Innovation has been key when designing for small urban gardens. Space is at a premium therefore ingenuity is essential in forming multi use areas. My design ethos has always been to create harmonious gardens which suit the space and budget. With the use of distinctive lighting and expert planting I love the challenge of transforming even the smallest of spaces." "Once I have gathered as much information form the client, I then produce initial drawings which can be perfected along the way. Once the design is established a final set of visuals and technical drawings are produced, this is supported by mood boards, a planting plan and a lighting plan. At this stage I can recommend one of my landscaping contractors I regularly work with or I am equally happy to collaborate with the clients chosen landscapers."

We really enjoyed the process and results of working with Georgia. Our garden project came towards the end of a major house renovation. While that process can sap the soul, Georgia made our garden works a creative, collaborative, smooth and fun project. She really takes the time to understand you and your wishes/ needs. Nothing is imposed, there is no ‘hang on I’m the artist here, I know best’ (although she definitely does!). At the same time, we were constantly, pleasantly surprised by her vision and ability to add subtle touches and detail throughout the project. Any revisions we made, she was incredibly creative and accommodating. Also, there were no hidden surprises on fees. She gave us one overall fee which covered everything rather than a combination of fees and hourly rate. We really liked the clarity and transparency of that particularly when coming to the end of a long build. Georgia brings everything together as she does furniture, lighting as well as the design and planting. It's really lovely working with someone who treats the project with real passion and obvious joy. Meetings or recces for plants were something to look forward to as there would be great ideas from Georgia. She also sourced the excellent Nordland landscapes. She is incredibly positive and a genuinely lovely person to be around. We couldn’t recommend Georgia more highly. Thank you so much for giving us a truly beautiful garden. Caroline and Martin

Comment from Georgia Lindsay Garden Design:

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this very thoughtful review. I'm so happy I was able to recommend a brilliant landscape contractor who was able to really get to grips with a very water logged site and work effortlessly alongside us. I'm really looking forward to seeing the garden blossom next in 2021 with all the seasonal interest which has been planned into the planting design. There is lots of buried bulb treasure so you will get a lovely surprise in the spring. Stay in touch. Georgia x

We really, really enjoyed working with Georgia on our new garden and we're incredibly pleased with the results. Georgia was a true professional throughout as well as just being great to work with; everything was delivered to the highest standard and in good time. She thought of lots of things we wouldn't have and had some simple fixes to work with elements in our garden that would have been really expensive to totally change. The garden looks fantastic and the design is really cohesive and makes the most of the space - it all hangs together beautifully and Georgia suggested loads of plants and flowers that we just wouldn't have known or thought about it. Would thoroughly recommend.

Thanks so much for your review Helen, it was such a pleasure working with you both to bring the garden in line with your gorgeous house. You both have such a keen sense of design yourselves it was a joy to be able to bounce ideas and hone the design together. Thanks for being wonderful clients. I'm so looking forward to seeing your garden blossom next year. Please stay in touch. All the best Georgia

Totally amazing garden designer. Georgia's vision and talent, transformed a very sad patch of 'garden' into an oasis of colour and style. From start to finish she delivered on every front, I was initially a bit sceptical when Georgia suggested creating an environment that had an element of discovery in it and asked me to imagine going for a walk around the garden.... (it is around 18' x 20' and that might be being generous!) but that is exactly what we have. Because the garden is so small I really wanted to avoid a patio type feel, which had largely been the line a couple of other garden designers had suggested. Instead Georgia brought the full force of her design skills to every aspect of the garden, no corner was neglected and the result is a wonderful harmony. From the planting, to the building of raised beds, to the flooring, to the painting and lighting................ every single aspect was given detailed care and attention. The team she brought to work on the garden were equally dedicated to the project and we have ended up with a very special garden which we can hardly believe is ours, it is truly transformed into an environment where you can explore(!) sit and relax and is a testament to Georgia's skill as a garden designer. As you can tell I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Susan, I can't tell you how wonderfully kind and generous you are. It makes my job complete when I know how happy you are. I'm sure you know we had a great connection and your honesty and trust in me allowed me to create a very personal garden for you. I'm so proud of it but more importantly it gives me deep satisfaction knowing how much joy you will get out of it. I look forward to seeing it grow. x

Amazing design and management from this lovely lady. We have ended up with a stunning garden terrace that makes me feel as if we are living in a boutique hotel. Co-ordinated really well alongside out building works and planned to take account of my lack of gardening skills we have ended up with a gorgeous space that will be well used for many years to come. Thank you Georgia.

Thanks Owen & Siobhan, I am really looking forward to seeing the garden fill out in the spring. I am planning a photo shoot at the end of May for the Allium display. I hope that suits? Best wishes and I hope you continue to enjoy your garden as it develops.

Georgia was truly fantastic ! She listened carefully to our needs and developed an excellent design for our garden space. When we had any concerns she always took them seriously and came back with good suggestions and ideas but never pushy. We are so happy with our new garden and all of Georgia’s clever design work to make the best use of a small space.

Thanks Niomi, I was so pleased with finish despite it being from your ready made and not bespoke line. I will definitely be specifying it again.

We never thought we could do that much with the awkwardly shaped, dead space that we inherited when we moved house, but Georgia proved us massively wrong. We couldn't be happier with the resulting outdoor 'oasis' and creative use of space and are now enjoying our outdoor space all the time (day and night)! She took time to understand what we are were looking for and what our tastes were, responding with brilliant designs, solutions and recommendations for every part of the process, working in a very collaborative way throughout. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thank you! Dan and Lin, Crouch End N8.

We really loved Georgia's portfolio of work, especially the way she used light in her urban gardens, so we chose her to help us do the garden and roof terrace during our refurb and we are so pleased we did. Georgia really listened to our brief and her ideas were incredibly creative. She chose plants that we could manage (even though we are not gardeners) and she liaised with the builders to make sure her designs came to life. When we had an issue with the irrigation (a building mistake) Georgia made herself available to help us solve it. We loved working with her and our garden and terrace are real highlights of our house.

I've known Georgia for many years now, initially meeting her at Grand Designs Live. She is an absolutely pleasure to work with. Extremely personable and professional, her project management skills, creativity and planting expertise were immediately evident when I worked for her on the Camden project. She was well regarded by myself, the client and contractors.

Georgia worked with us to transform a complex, and completely run down urban garden space. It involved elaborate structuring work, building multiple terraces to take advantage of A very steep, 10m high, incline. Georgia created a concept that was imaginative, yet practical that built upon our lifestyle, and guided our contractors through construction. She is highly professional, knowledgeable, passionate, responsive, a pleasure to collaborate with and made the process easy for us. The results are remarkable, beyond what we had imagined, and have given us a beautiful space that we love and thoroughly enjoy!

This is the first time we have been asked to create a wonderful project for Georgia. We produced a unique bespoke design for her. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Georgia, her enthusiasm and creativity is second to none. We are currently working on a new project with Georgia and cannot wait until we see her professional/inspiring designs and how she integrates our metal screens into her new project.
