Emily O'Neill

As a former professional dancer and personal trainer, movement through space is of huge importance to me so my designs aim to take the viewer on a beautiful journey. My background in health and wellness means I have a strong drive to create spaces that benefit humans physically, mentally and emotionally, whilst attracting wildlife and being kind to the planet. My years volunteering in the kitchen garden at Chiswick House have fuelled my passion for food growing and I always try to 'sneak' a few edible plants into my designs wherever possible - after all, why shouldn't gardens taste as good as they look? 

Like many people, the pandemic gave me time to evaluate what fulfils me. It has always been through helping people or bringing them joy, however now I want to achieve this through creating gorgeous gardens that people can enjoy with their loved ones for many years. I am looking forward to working collaboratively in a studio with others who share the same passion for people, wildlife and planet.
