We design
and build gardens
At WM DESIGN STUDIO we design and build beautiful, sustainable gardens. Our services span from initial concept plans through construction, to ongoing maintenance and management after completion. We handle every aspect of the process, ensuring a seamless experience.
All our gardens promote sustainability, creating spaces where people and wildlife can thrive together.
DISCOVERY PHONECALL
First, we’ll discuss your initial requirements over the phone to determine if we’re a good fit. We don’t work with everyone, and we assess the alignment of principles, expectations, and budgets to ensure a mutually beneficial partnership.
INITIAL CONSULTATION
We visit your property to learn everything about the existing space, following a comprehensive process of site survey and research analysis to guide our landscape design.
CLIENT BRIEF
We spend time understanding your preferences to form an achievable client brief. We’ll discuss budgets / levels of investment and create mood boards to guide the initial stage of the design process and present case studies of similar project we have completed.
