LANDSCAPE AND GARDEN DESIGN

Nigel Philips trained at Merrist Wood College and has been practicing garden design professionally since 1981. He has carried out a wide range of commissions from modern town gardens and corporate courtyards to the more traditional landscaping of large country estates and an award winning Chelsea garden. His experience has afforded him a Fellowship with the Society of Garden Designers, an organisation set up to verify professional design service to clients. He is also a member of the Institute of Horticulture.

His broad knowledge and enthusiasm for garden design and garden history is apparent in his designs and has led him naturally to teaching which he has been doing for the last 10 years. He currently runs several courses at Plumpton College and has lectured in related subjects for the Royal Horticultural Society and other educational establishments.
