Conscious Landscape were approached by a young family renovating a 5-acre property in Essex, who wanted to create a wilder landscape. The house and land had been abandoned for the last 2-3 years and the garden was overgrown in parts and taken over by deer.
Working with the client to understand their holistic context, Conscious Landscape started with a baseline assessment of the site - comprised of tree and species surveys, topography and water course mapping, and soil assessments – this then fed into the development of both a Design Plan and an Implementation and Maintenance Handbook. As always, our design was focused on creating a beneficial impact for nature, biodiversity and wildlife whilst aligning to the needs of the client.
