Designing gardens around the way you want to live
Garden Designer working across Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey and Oxfordshire
I create gardens that feel connected to their surroundings and work naturally with the way you want to live.
From the layout and flow of the garden through to materials and planting, I consider how all the elements work together to create a space that feels cohesive, inviting and enjoyable throughout the year.
Whether it's a family garden, a period property or a larger rural landscape, my aim is to create a garden that feels right for its setting and becomes more rewarding as it matures.
I’m Claire Evans, creating bespoke gardens that combine thoughtful design, spatial planning and planting to shape outdoor spaces that are practical, elegant and connected to everyday life.
My approach is informed by both professional training and hands-on experience.
From our first meeting, it was clear that Claire knows what works and what doesn't. She came up with some great ideas that maximised the space we have and we are delighted with the results.
Claire is easy to deal with and works collaboratively to make sure that you will be left with a garden that you will want to spend plenty of time in."" McDonough 2025"
