Having taught Liz Garden Design at Inchbald School of Design, I was delighted to welcome her onto the teaching team as a Senior Tutor.  Liz’s background as an educator allows her natural communication and leadership skills to shine in a learning environment.  Her ability to nurture creative talent is a joy to watch.  

Liz is outstanding in the field and I have worked with her on many workshops, tours and international visits.  Liz is supportive, creative and an excellent interpreter of design.

Liz is an inspiring educator with a warm & welcoming demeanour. We first met when I joined her field trip to Paris in Spring 2025, to explore garden & landscape design in the city. What a brilliant experience! A unique opportunity to meet other Garden Designers and likeminded creatives to explore design, art and the aesthetics of outdoor spaces. Liz (and Andrew Duff, who co-authored the tour) provided a narrative backdrop throughout the week, which was captivating & insightful. We all left Paris having learnt so much and with a lovely bunch of new connections.

Later in the year, when I needed a creative boost, I joined another of Liz’s workshops – this time a painting retreat in Yorkshire, organised in partnership with landscape artist Pippa Ashworth. Once again this experience was brilliantly put together, super friendly and truly inspiring. Liz has a unique ability to bring like minded people together and foster an open and collaborative creative experience.

Liz is a very talented designer with inspired ideas and is a great communicator.

We asked for an Autumn/Winter garden with easy maintenance and could not have imagined her stunning vision. She managed to achieve a brilliant combination of geometry (using metal, local stone setts and contemporary furniture), softness and natural planting, rooting the garden in the surrounding countryside and capitalising on the beautiful views. She also created discrete, secluded spaces - and all this in a relatively small garden!

She took time to explain her vision and listen sympathetically to our requirements. Liz is quite simply a stunning, thoughtful and creative designer.
