We listen to your needs, we evaluate and we design the most suitable solution in order to create that space you’ve been dreaming of. With our design and horticultural expertise AH Design Studio can deliver a garden of any scale that you will love and be proud to own.

site survey & analysis
On a modest sized site, such as a residential garden, a survey will be completed to accurately record all relevant data from the site. This will include general measurements, key features within the boundary such as existing trees, buildings, level changes and any features a client may wish to keep. On more complicated or larger sites a surveyor will be employed to complete a full topographical survey.
Concept design
This first phase of design is where we convert your requirements and our ideas into drawings. We develop a design or series of designs that broadly outlines the proposed scheme. This is often presented to you through plans, 3D views, fly-through animations and reference images.
detailed design
After the concept design has been approved a set of detailed drawings will be produced. These drawings will define material choice, plant species selection and will allow project costs to be gathered from construction contractors. These drawings can typically include an annotated masterplan, detailed construction drawings, construction specifications, planting plans and 3D rendered imagery.
landscape planning applications
We produce drawings suitable to meet local authorities planning requirements including full planning permissions and discharge of planning conditions. Typically, we will provide plans, elevations, 3D rendered views as well as maintenance and management schedules.
construction management
During the construction regular visits can be made to monitor progress to ensure the project is built as agreed by the client and as per the design. Guidance and support is offered to the contractor and our client.
