At Maya Studio, I design gardens that help people feel rooted again — in themselves, in their communities, and in the living world around them.
Whether it’s a quiet corner in a city garden or a shared community space, my work begins with listening: to the land, to the people who use it, and to the deeper systems — ecological and social — that shape it.
I bring innovative approach and blend of:
Contemplative landscape design
Using neuroscience-backed principles that support calm, focus, and emotional wellbeing
Soil and climate regeneration
Through techniques like biochar, sponge gardens, water-sensitive planting, and biodiversity restoration
Vernacular technologies
In collaboration with craftsmen and artists .
Maya Studio Ethos:
Whether designing a private garden, a therapeutic green space for a charity, business or a community project in an urban setting, I offer to create:
• Calm, rooted places that support mental wellbeing
• Regenerative planting plans that restore local ecology and climate resilience
• Soil systems and materials that honour the land’s long-term health
• Accessible processes that invite participation, ownership, and joy
• A grounded approach to sacredness — not as a belief system, but as a way of working with attention, care, and respect
⸻
Let’s design a space that feels like it matters — because it does.
