Testimonials
K and D Lamb, MidlothianWe asked Karen for a design for a wheelchair friendly productive garden.
The site was a blank canvas with the exception of four large sycamore trees and a slope from left to right. The garden she designed was exactly what we wanted, with raised beds for growing herbs and vegetables. The area of the garden that is inaccessible to a wheelchair because of the slope has been kept to a minimum. It also looks good with the materials in keeping with our bungalow.
It was a pleasure working with Karen, because we felt fully involved in the design process. She listened to our ideas as well as putting forward her own. Without her, we would not be enjoying our stylish, practical garden.
J Holland, EdinburghKaren is a gem of a landscape designer, she has in depth knowledge of plants and trees, and on the top a creative eye for design. Her approach to our brief was conscientious of it location and supportive of our needs as a young family. She was really helpfull during the construction, being on site when the contractor needed a little guidance. We are delighted with the result, thank you Karen.
W Murray, EasthavenKaren Laing designed the East Haven Beechgrove Community Garden which was awarded Gold in the Beautiful Scotland competition in 2015. She created a community garden that met the needs and aspirations of the whole community. Her ideas were inspirational and the final design integrated our maritime heritage right into the heart of the village. Karen consulted with us at every stage and took everybody's ideas into account. As a result we have the most amazing gardens with beautiful plants which provide colour all year round. As a community, we can't recommend Karen highly enough. The gardens in East Haven have now become such a special place to visit and we are inundated with tourists. Karen must surely be one of the most talented garden designers/ landscape architects in the UK.
S Mackie, EdinburghI have had the pleasure of of working with Karen on several projects in my garden over the past 2-3 years. I have been delighted with the results. She listens to her customers (me!) and has infinite patience as ideas float in and out of the evolving plan. I have appreciated her suggestions, her attention to detail and the creativity and artistic 'eye' she brings to her designs. Karen makes planning a garden a remarkably happy, stress-free occasion!
