Do you want your outdoor space to look as stylish and as well designed as your home? RHS Design Outdoors will give you the ideas and know-how you need to make that happen. Award-winning designer Matt Keightley has curated a collection of 35 gardens, created either by him or by other leading contemporary designers, that will provide the inspiration to transform your outdoor space. Gardeners features include award-winning designers Jo Thompson, Tom Stuart Smith, Tony Woods, Charlotte Rowe and Andrew Wilson. For each case study there is a detailed plan, information on the plants and materials used and a wealth of gorgeous photography by leading garden photographer Marianne Majerus.

The designs are organized into five categories: Showstoppers at Home – high-design concepts that are nonetheless achievable; Family-friendly – gardens that incorporate play areas and socialising; Minimalist – spaces with larger areas of hard landscaping and bold, restrained planting; Plants First – gardens where more than half of the outdoor space is planted; and Other Spaces – roof terraces, basement areas and front gardens. This wide array of garden styles means that there is inspiration for all types of garden, and for all types of gardener.

Projects & Plans for a Stylish Garden

Meet award-winning garden designer Matt Keightley

Matt Keightley made waves within the landscaping industry in 2014 when, as a debutant at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, he was awarded the RHS Silver-Gilt Medal and the BBC People’s Choice Award for his ‘Help for Heroes’ show garden, dedicated to the wounded men and women of the armed forces. One year later he worked with Prince Harry for his charity Sentebale. Matt’s ‘Hope in Vulnerability’ show garden earned him another Silver-Gilt Medal and the BBC People’s Choice Award. In 2017, he was appointed to design an RHS/BBC Radio 2 garden with presenter Jeremy Vine.

Matt is now working on projects in the UK and Germany. www.rosebanklandscaping.co.uk
