Craft is led by Paul and Harry
I lead the design and planting direction at Craft Gardens, shaping innovative, biodiverse gardens that encourage clients to spend more time outdoors.
I’m naturally hands‑on and enjoy being involved during the build phase, especially planting where my Royal Horticultural Society training and plant knowledge make a real difference. I hold a Postgraduate Diploma (Distinction) from the British Academy of Garden Design and previously founded and ran Forb Garden Design.
Paul
I oversee the physical landscaping, shaping everything from paving and cladding to water features, lighting and outdoor structures.
Bringing design into reality is something I take great pride in, and I’m driven by craftsmanship, detail and consistently high standards. I stay engaged with new products and industry best practice to ensure our work remains refined, durable and forward‑thinking.
Harry
Craft was established after we’d worked together through our previous companies. We quickly realised that together we could offer a uniquely professional, respectful and skilled service and a great experience for our clients.
As members of the Society of Garden and Landscape Designers, we stay closely aligned with the latest industry guidance, standards and product developments, ensuring our clients receive well‑informed, future‑focused solutions. Ongoing learning is central to our practice — from supplier visits to skills development days. The variety of the work, and the opportunity to test and refine new ideas, is one of the reasons we’re so passionate about what we do.
We take professional development seriously
We deliver beautifully crafted gardens supported by a thoughtful, professional service. We approach every project with the same principles we’d expect as clients ourselves: reliability, respect, clear communication and transparency on costs. We guide you through key decisions, sharing balanced pros and cons so your garden is shaped around your priorities.
You always work directly with us as we focus on one garden at a time. By keeping our overheads lean, we’re able to maximise value while maintaining the high standards we’re known for.
