Why Choose Luke Gevaux Garden Design?

Ecological & Wildlife-First Approach

Each design is created with the local ecosystem in mind. By selecting the right plants and creating habitat features, you’ll welcome all kinds of wildlife, from bees and birds, to tiny, beneficial insects into your space. The result is a vibrant garden that thrives year-round and supports biodiversity.

Bespoke, Client-Centric Solutions

Your garden should reflect your needs, tastes, and lifestyle. I take time to understand how you’ll use the space, whether for relaxing, entertaining, or growing edibles, and craft a layout that works for you. Every scheme is unique, built around your vision.

Seamless Contextual Harmony

Gardens should feel as if they’ve always belonged to their setting. I study your site’s soil, aspect, and the architectural style of your home and locality to design a scheme that blends effortlessly with its surroundings. The finished garden never feels “plonked,” but rather an organic extension of home and landscape.

Sustainable, Locally Sourced Materials

From reclaimed stone to locally cut timber, I prioritise materials with low environmental impact. This not only reduces your garden’s carbon footprint but also supports local artisans and suppliers. You’ll enjoy a durable, characterful space built on eco-friendly choices.

Modern Cottage Garden Reinvented

I draw inspiration from classic English cottage gardens, then refine and refresh the style for a contemporary context. Expect lush drifts of perennials, mixed with surprising textures and sculptural accents. It’s tradition but with a modern twist.

Edible & Ornamental Planting

Why choose between beauty and harvest? My designs weave fruit, herbs, and vegetables into perennial and ornamental borders. The result is a sumptuous, layered aesthetic that’s both productive and attractive.

Balanced Formal & Naturalistic Elements

Structured forms like topiary or crisp hedging add sophistication and focus to an otherwise wild-flower feel. This interplay of geometry and informality keeps the eye moving, creating moments of calm and surprise throughout your garden.

Professionally Accredited Expertise

I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Garden Design from the British Academy of Garden Design. My academic training, paired with hands-on ecological experience, means you benefit from both rigorous design principles and sensitive, wildlife-friendly practices.
