Sustainability

Today we are facing a dramatic environmental crisis. We believe that strong landscape design plays an important role in preserving the environment. Private gardens represent a third of the green infrastructure in Ireland. We all have a part to play! In every design, and with your guidance, we encourage elements to support biodiversity and the national pollinator plan. Landscapes are living and don’t just serve an aesthetic function. Various design choices can support biodiversity, reduce the quantity of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and help fight the battle against global warming and environmental degradation. We are committed to promoting sustainability in our sphere of activity. In every project Online Garden Designs supports these fundamentals to help contribute to climate regeneration.

Technology

Our accomplished team of designers brings every project to life. To achieve this we use a combination of the most advanced 3D design and rendering software on the market, advanced horticultural knowledge and timeless design theory. We are constantly upskilling, ensuring that we are on top of technological developments.
