Butter Wakefield Garden Design
About
Butter Wakefield Garden Design is a small west London-based studio, specialising in residential projects in the city and the southwest of the United Kingdom. Butter takes inspiration from surrounding architecture, landscapes, interior design aesthetic and the client’s brief to deliver highly considered, elegant gardens. Sustainability is hugely important to Butter’s design process and at the heart of all her projects. This means choosing British materials and British-grown plants wherever possible, and using no herbicides or pesticides. Her planting extends the flowering season as long as possible, for people and pollinators alike. She and her team work closely with specialist contractors in all fields and source unique and characterful materials, with their aim being the creation of outstanding, beautiful gardens that enhance each property and bring joy and inspiration to their owners. Butter has over 20 years of experience creating many inspirational and purposeful gardens of all sizes both in London and beyond.
