The Garden Company reaches 35-year milestone in design-led landscape delivery
This year marks the 35th anniversary of The Garden Company, a milestone reflecting its longstanding commitment to delivering beautifully crafted outdoor spaces for clients.
Founded in 1991, the Hertfordshire-based practice has built a strong reputation for delivering bespoke gardens and landscapes across private, commercial and public settings.
The Garden Company has consistently prioritised collaboration with clients, guiding them through every stage of the design and build process. Each project is shaped by a clear understanding of client objectives, whether creating highly personal residential spaces or responding to the complex demands of wider-use environments. This client-focused ethos has resulted in a diverse portfolio of award-winning work, defined not only by design excellence but by the enduring relationships built along the way. Many clients return to the practice for subsequent projects over the years, while others continue to entrust The Garden Company with the ongoing care and development of their outdoor spaces - reinforcing the value placed on consistent quality.
"We’ve always believed that great garden design begins and ends with the client," says James Scott MBALI FSGLD, Managing Director and Principal Designer.
"It’s about more than aesthetics - it’s about creating spaces that genuinely enhance how people live, feel, and connect with their surroundings over time."
Over the past 35 years, the practice has evolved its design approach in response to changing lifestyles, environmental considerations and the growing importance of sustainable landscapes. However, its core principles remain unchanged: thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship and a genuine focus on delivering meaningful outcomes for clients.
Reflecting on the journey, James adds:
"Anniversaries offer an important moment to pause and reflect - not just on the projects we’ve completed, but on the people who have made it all possible. We are incredibly grateful to our clients, suppliers and team members for their collaboration over the years.
"While we’re very pleased to have received national recognition for our work, the most rewarding feedback has always been hearing how a garden has positively impacted someone’s everyday life. When a client tells us their garden brings them joy every day, that’s the true measure of success.
"As we look to the future, our focus remains the same: to create spaces that enrich lives, foster connection with nature, and stand the test of time.”
