Creating new Japanese gardens
Our approach
A Japanese garden is not simply a reproduction of a traditional Japanese style. We believe it should express the essential principles of Japanese garden design while responding to the local climate, landscape, architecture and intended use of the site.
A Japanese garden is never truly finished. It evolves over time through careful maintenance, responding to the growth of plants and changes in its surrounding environment.
At Tomorroway, we take time to understand both your site and your aspirations before developing a design. From the outset, we prioritise creating gardens that can be maintained sustainably for many years to come.
Our services
Depending on the needs of each project, our services may include:
Site assessment and concept development
Japanese garden design proposals
Design of planting schemes, stone arrangements, paths and water features
Selection of plants and materials with long-term maintenance in mind
Collaboration with, and construction support for, local landscape contractors where appropriate
Where we work
We undertake projects of varying scales, from private residential gardens to public spaces, educational institutions and cultural facilities.
Our primary area of operation is the United Kingdom and Europe. For projects outside the UK, we work closely with local partners and landscape contractors.
