Design and Build
New gardens and full redesigns, managed from first sketch to finished planting.
GreenArt designs, builds and cares for premium gardens across Berkshire, with a focus on quality, long-term enjoyment, and gardens that work with nature. From full transformations to thoughtful upgrades, we keep the process clear and deliver gardens that feel calm and considered.
GreenArt is a family-run garden design and landscaping business led by George and Jo Smith. For over 17 years we’ve been creating and looking after gardens across Oxfordshire for people who want a beautiful, organised space without having to wrestle with it themselves – whether you’re busy with work or finding the garden harder to manage than it used to be.
Most people come to GreenArt either to create a new garden or to look after one they already have. We can help with both.

Many of our clients want a garden that feels calm and easy to live with, but also does its bit for wildlife and the wider landscape. When we plan a garden we think about soil, water, sun and shade as much as paving and seating, so it can cope with heavier rain, hotter summers and everything in between. We also back local projects that are restoring habitats around Oxfordshire.
Sometimes it is easier to choose what you like when you can see and touch it. In our Wallingford showroom you can walk through planted displays, feel different paving underfoot and see materials and colours together, just as they would be in your own garden.
You are welcome to pop in for a look round or book a time to sit down with George or Jo. We can put photos of your garden up on the big screen, talk through sketches and ideas, and gently work out what is realistic for your space, budget and timescale. No rush, no hard sell – just a relaxed chat with people who do this every day.
When you’re investing in your garden, you want confidence in the end result and in the process. We’re known for clear communication, high standards, and gardens that feel as good to use as they look.
A joined-up service, delivered by in-house teams, so quality stays consistent from design through to build and ongoing care.

We design with planting, water, shade and soil in mind, helping gardens stay healthier, support more wildlife, and cope better over time.
