Garden Designer Bristol
Alice Ferguson
My background has always been in art and design. I have a degree in Architecture from Cambridge University and subsequently worked in design and floristry. I founded a successful wedding floristry business (Forage and Blossom) in 2014, which included growing my own cut flowers in a field near my home. With garden design, I am now amalgamating the two parts of me: art, design and creativity with my passion for nature and human interaction with their surroundings.
I studied at the London School of Garden Design and was lucky to be tutored by some of the leading current UK landscape designers: Andrew Wilson, Andrew Fisher-Tomlin, Gavin McWilliam, Jo Thompson, Tom Massey, Andrée Davies from Davies – White Landscape Architects, Richard Curle from Landscape Associates and Olivia Kirk.
After graduating in July 2019 from the London School of Garden Design with Distinction and the college award for the top student of 2019, I joined the design team of Artisan Landscapes in Bristol. Following two brilliant years with the Artisan team, where I gained invaluable experience, I branched out and set up my own Garden Design Studio based in Bristol and designing nationally.



Alice’s Garden Design Philosophy
With my sensitive and creative approach I seek to create gardens which connect you to nature through textural experience, sense and atmosphere.
Through each design I respond to the unique contextual setting and draw inspiration from both the surroundings and the individual client to create timeless and engaging gardens.
Every design is deeply considered with both an emotional and practical response to ensure enjoyment and longevity.
I work closely with architects and interior designers in order to seamlessly link the house and garden.
My designs are site-focused and led with a sensitivity and understanding of my client requirements. I create immersive landscapes which evoke positive interaction and memories.
