What we do We design outdoor spaces for living well. Places to relax, entertain and enjoy everyday life. Our work is rooted in practical experience, thoughtful design and a love of outdoor living.
Who we are
We believe an outdoor space should add value in more ways than one, from your lifestyle and wellbeing to the long-term value of your home.
The Outdoor Alchemist was created from a simple idea:
You don’t need to be a gardener to have a great garden.
Our work brings together more than 30 years of passion for outdoor living, garden design and building beautiful spaces with a background in consultancy, creative thinking and immersive experience design.
It’s an eclectic mix, but it’s exactly what helps us see gardens differently.
We combine deep-rooted expertise in plants and design with a love of outdoor entertaining, live-fire cooking and creating spaces where people want to spend time.
What that means for you is a garden designer who thinks beyond how your space looks and considers how it feels, how it functions and how it fits into everyday life.
Our approach
Every garden, home and person is different. That’s why our work always starts with how you want to live.
Do you want to entertain more?
Relax outside after work?
Create somewhere for family and friends to gather?
We design spaces that are practical, beautiful and built to last. Gardens that work all year round and feel like a natural extension of your home.

Outdoor entertaining and hospitality sit at the heart of what we do.
With the cost of dining out and holidays rising, more people are choosing to invest in their homes and create spaces that feel comfortable, welcoming and easy to enjoy.

The British climate is changing and gardens need to work with it.
We design spaces that are practical, resilient and suited to modern lifestyles, using planting and materials that thrive in real conditions and require the right level of maintenance for your time and budget.
A garden that works beautifully in everyday life.

Great gardens should support the natural world as well as the people who use them.
The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world, but small changes in garden design can make a meaningful difference. They can encourage wildlife, promote biodiversity, improve plant health and create richer outdoor environments for families to enjoy.
