"With a little patience and creativity, gardens can be created anywhere."
Founded in 2012 by Gavin Muir, On Common Ground Landscapes brings together years of hands-on experience across a wide range of landscaping work, including gardens, structural landscaping, planting design, and outdoor space rejuvenation.
We specialise in creating functional outdoor spaces—whether starting from bare earth, rebuilding an existing garden, or refining an established landscape.
We also offer stand-alone landscape design consultations, providing practical advice, concept development, and planting guidance for projects at any stage. Every project is tailored to the site and how it’s used, with a focus on creating an outdoor space to meet your needs.
