About Kate Luby

I was drawn to garden design when I realised just how much I enjoyed designing my own — I particularly enjoy using colours in planting and furniture to complement, soften and connect areas. I want to create gardens that invite you to spend time in, not just gardens to admire.

The design process will be collaborative as one of my strengths is helping clients to understand what they want to gain from their gardens — whether that be opening areas up or making them more secluded, softening or tying areas together with the aim of creating a space they love.

I specialise in designing spaces that are considerate to environmental impact. This includes planting to encourage wildlife and reduce water use, designing hard landscaping that supports natural drainage, and partnering with like-minded landscapers, gardeners and suppliers.
