GARDEN DESIGN - 8-week Monday evening course in Herne Hill
20th Jan - 17th March 2025*
(*held over 9 weeks with half term break on 17th Feb)
Whether you're considering a career change, working as a gardener and wanting to add to your skills, planning your own garden or just interested in dipping your toe into Garden Design to see what it's all about, our Garden Design evening short course will introduce you to the main elements of Garden Design and take you through the basic stages of designing a garden from initial appraisal to a useable plan.
A friendly and informal course which is informative, practical and full of useful details and techniques, the course is a great way to learn the basic principles in order to design your own garden or your clients’ gardens, or to try out Garden Design before committing to a full diploma. The course covers:
Garden design principles and styles Equipment and materials for getting started in Garden Design Key techniques and skills (eg appraisal, measuring, drawing to scale) Coming up with ideas and concepts for a garden Creating a garden design on paper Choosing materials and plants Making sustainable choices
You’ll work on an actual garden as a case study during the course. It can be your own garden, a friend or client’s garden or a community or public garden (or we can provide a case study garden for you to work on). Over the course of the term you’ll come up with a set of basic scale plans for that garden and work on a design for it.
Adults only; open to all levels; classes take place in Herne Hill Station Hall, Railton Rd, SE24
