Elemental Designs

My name is Rachel Merrick, my business is Elemental Designs. I offer high quality garden design and build services for architects, developer’s and private clients on larger private or commercial landscape schemes.

I specialise in the provision of landscape planning discharge drawings, so if you are an architect, a property developer, or a private client, I can support your construction projects by providing detailed landscape drawings to fulfil local planning authority discharge conditions. My designs have been proven to be successful in this specialist area and I have worked for a wide number of architects and local planning authorities. I offer planning discharge work nationally and I am not limited geographically.

With 18 years’ experience, I have the skills you need. In a nutshell, my work complements and will support you, or your client’s project to its full potential.

Additionally, Elemental Designs has a great interest in sustainable gardens and can create designs for wildflower meadows, living or green walls or rainwater gardens to manage excess surface water management.

I predominantly work across the south east, south west and the west midlands. Although currently physically located on the borders of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Shropshire, I happily travel to fulfil existing and new commitments within the south east, south west and the midlands. For me location is not a barrier for successful working collaborations and COVID-19 has taught us all how to work and communicate effectively and efficiently.

Garden Design Services for Architects and Property Developers

My planning drawings will work with your scheme and provide all the necessary detail required by the planning authorities. In short, I save you time and will integrate seamlessly into your processes. And I will meet your deadlines.

With over 90 garden designs and builds to my name, this is a specialist service that combines creativity with functionality. The end results are elegant designs that work and beautiful gardens that bring pleasure to people who place a high value on their indoor and outdoor spaces.

Garden Design Services for Private Clients

I also offer garden design and project management build services for larger landscape schemes for private clients. If you have set your heart on the perfect garden, I can design it for you. These are detailed, highly deliverable designs that I can help bring to life.

I have the essential knowledge and practical know-how that 18 years’ experience has given me.

In my opinion, design is just a small part of the process. Delivering the design as a well-constructed and planted garden is the main part. After 18 years and a wide range of projects completed, I can confidently say that I have extensive practical experience to understand clearly how to get the design built. It is what makes me different. Read more about my approach here…
