Freddie is an award-winning garden and landscape designer based in Bristol and working nationally. In his designs, themes include a focus on plants and sustainability, as well as a celebration of natural materials used in new and exciting ways.
Freddie was crowned the RHS Young designer of the year 2021 following his Gold medal award-winning show garden at Tatton Park. His environmentally conscious garden ‘On Tropic’ highlighted a changing palette of plants in a warming climate, and also won best construction in show.
Having grown up in London, Freddie chose to swap city life for the Cornish coast, where he studied and worked for eight years. It was a platform from which he grew enormously, successfully graduating with a degree in Fine Art from Falmouth University.
Freddie’s love for the outdoors found him working for an environmental charity. However, it wasn’t long before his passion for horticulture overtook him and led him to further study Garden and Landscape design at the Eden Project, Cornwall.
Freddie has been inspired by the gardens of the South West, and these influences are present within his latest designs. Other themes include a focus on sustainability, and he hopes this can be seen with the plants, materials and construction methods he chooses to use. Freddie aims to guide people to make the most of their outdoor space and realise its potential to become a place to escape to and bring great joy.
Other notable highlights include being recognised in Country and Town House magasine as one of ‘The 20 Finest Garden Designers 2023’, as well as being included in Pro Landscaper’s ’30 Under 30’ competition; as one of thirty people under thirty years of age who show exceptional potential within the landscape industry.
