5 innovative landscaping studios with elevated outdoor designs

The benefits of good design aren't felt only in the home, they can be experienced in the exterior realm, too. Backyards, courtyards, sprawling estates and outdoor leisure areas are all spaces that can enhance our lives and add value to our properties – but only when they are done well. Engaging a landscaping expert to oversee your outdoor project is the key to building an enriching open-air destination that best suits your needs, land and desired aesthetics, and these five are some of the best landscape designers in the industry. 

Refined, beautiful and full, gardens and outdoor spaces created by the team at Peachy Green are urban retreats.
