Anouska Hempel Design

Anouska Hempel Design gardens can be disciplined, sculpted landscapes; rooms within rooms; enclosed green spaces of lush privacy with glimpses into yet further rooms. The designer's eye produces symmetry and discipline, with yew trees, box bushes, the strict bordering and banding paths which is then entered into glorious dialogue with the growth and spontaneity of nature. The gardens created may be Japanese, Italianate or minimalist; all are considered, precisely positioned horticultural works of art. Yet gardens by Hempel and her team never grandiose; through each runs a mischief, a living thread of wit; the signs of a designer who is enjoying herself, and communicating, to all who visit, that sense of aesthetic exhilaration.
