AM Landscape Design

'Design for a cave' Design should celebrate place and context. This design on the edge of a Mt Eden lava flow draws attention to the textures and uniqueness of this feature. Cant wait to see the glow of the fire upon the rock face at night!

In 2025, I completed a Certificate in Permaculture Design. I endeavour to apply these learnings within my garden design practice. This approach goes beyond purely sustainable and organic gardening; it considers how a landscape can function as a living system, where each element interacts to support and benefit both people and the wider environment.🏡

Key aspects of this approach include building and nurturing soil health, incorporating companion planting strategies, designing with resilient and renewable resources, and fostering community engagement. 🌻 The aim is to create gardens that are productive, regenerative, and deeply connected to their site and neighbourhood context.
Below is my own vegetable garden, where I have begun observing and 'experimenting'. 😃 I look forward to this new journey of discovering the opportunities permaculture can bring for my clients, friends and family.
