Studio Supernatural is a spirited team of award-winning Chartered landscape architects dedicated to crafting meaningful landscapes. Whether shaping vibrant commercial spaces, or engaging with public realm and masterplanning or transforming intimate residential gardens, our goal remains unwavering: to cultivate landscapes that invite individuals to forge deep connections with the natural world and the processes that create places. With meticulous attention to detail, our mission extends beyond aesthetics; it encompasses a commitment to fostering the psychological, social, and ecological benefits of nature, capturing and enhancing the spirit of place, and making these invaluable gifts accessible to all.

Our approach is to bring together diverse backgrounds within our own team and our network of collaborators, involving the client as a member of the design team to envision places creatively.

Founded in 2021 by directors Kerrie & Gaby, after collaborating on a show garden at RHS Chelsea Flower show, our shared passion for plants remains a guiding force in our landscapes.
