ADAM VETERE

Award-winning Garden Designer Hampshire

Adam Vetere is an award-winning, experienced and innovative garden designer in Hampshire. He won the Best in Houzz awards for Design and Service in 2020 and 2021, and graduated from the London College of Garden Design in 2019. Adam regularly travels around the world, visiting gardens in varying climates from desert to tropical, gathering garden design ideas, theories and variations on new planting schemes which can be used in future designs.

Innovative Design

“I’ve designed gardens both large and small, town or country, drawing upon inspiration from the four corners of the world, utilising my passion for plants and inspirational design.”

Adam is an accomplished landscape and garden designer, having created his first designs in the early 1990s at a reputable landscape design and construction company. He worked there for several years before a subtle change of career.

Whilst working at the landscape design company, Adam had the opportunity put his extensive graphical design training to good use as he built and constructed designs which we were both visionary and practical. Through this, Adam gained a better understanding of the practical and budgetary limits of the materials and the time needed to implement a design scheme.

Adam later moved into business and financial design, taking on a role where the need for design and the future were key concerns; how will the business grow, how will it develop, how will it succeed in a particular environment? These are all the fundamentals that a great garden designer needs to understand, along with the climate, the plants, their positioning and their companions.

Gardens in Hampshire

Hampshire is home to a great number of countryside locations with gardens that you can visit. Adam's own garden, Old Camps, is occasionally opened to the public under the National Garden Scheme, and was featured in Hampshire Life in 2018.

The Sir Harold Hillier Gardens in Romsey, on the other hand, can be visited year-round. The gardens were established by the distinguished plantsman Sir Harold Hillier in 1953, and now they are one of the most important modern plant collections in the world, housing 14 National Collections and thousands of plants from temperate regions. The location also has one of the largest Winter Gardens in Europe.

Some kind words

"Adam project managed the whole process brilliantly"

From the beginning to the end of my garden project it has been a pleasure to work with Adam. Adam laid out the process very clearly so I knew my options and we agreed a brief. Having been invited to see his own garden I knew I could trust his judgement and I wasn’t disappointed when he talked me through the design idea. He had designed a garden that fitted the features of the house as well as my own artist style which made it extra special; incorporating my fused glass was an unexpected chance to put my own stamp on the garden. Adam project managed the whole process brilliantly too. The planting has amazing combinations of plants in textures, scents and colours, many of which I had not been familiar with. With a plant list and maintenance instructions I feel equipped to help his vision develop as the months go by. Every day I look forward to seeing what new delights the garden offers. A patch of grass has been turned into a beautiful garden and a space to enjoy all through the year.

"I was instantly impressed with him and his eye for detail"

First met Adam at his garden while on a group visit. I was instantly impressed with him and his eye for detail. Sometime later I asked him if he would come up with a design for a patio area with a couple or raised beds. We discussed some very basic requirements and Adam presented several options, all which had merit but one fitted our requirements exactly. Adam is always keen to offer advice regarding landscaping and choice of plants. I would highly recommend him and would certainly contact him again for any future projects.

"Adam has been excellent in his approach to our garden design"

Adam has been excellent in his approach to our garden design, he has captured all our views and designed a garden so all children especially special needs children can access the garden like their friends. He has been very approachable and very sensitive to the project, and has looked at all access.

I can't recommend Adam enough in his design, approach and more importantly kindness.

"We would have no hesitation in recommending this company"

Through every stage from the initial planning to the implementation Adam and his team provided the highest level of service. The design reflected both Adam's ideas and our own contributions ensuring that our objectives were achieved. All the work was carried out on the specified dates, in a non-intrusive way, and an excellent dialogue ensured that we were kept fully up-to-date with progress. Despite difficult weather at the time the work was completed absolutely to schedule, and already it is clear that Adam will provide follow-up and advice when needed. Interaction with the team was pleasant and everyone worked in a very tidy and organised way. We would have no hesitation in recommending this company.

"I can't recommend Adam highly enough"

We are eternally grateful to Adam, who came to the rescue on our new build landscaping project, creating an innovative contemporary garden design to maximise the views from our difficult sloping site and reflect the contours of the surrounding landscape. In addition to his obvious expertise, Adam has shown great flexibility in dealing with our difficult deadlines and liaising with the builders and architect. We felt that Adam really understood us as people and incorporated this, helping us design not just the garden but our whole outside entertaining space. Adam's detailed presentation helped us understand how the garden will look across the seasons - we can’t wait to see the finished planting. I can't recommend Adam highly enough - Thanks Adam.

"Friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable"

We asked Adam to help us with a design for our long but quite narrow garden that had been neglected for a number of years. We had a few ideas and knew what we wanted to include in the finished garden, and Adam's final design ticked all the boxes! He was friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable and we would highly recommend his services. We felt he really took on board what we were hoping for and his attention to detail was excellent, the extremely professional final presentation was easy to understand and looked fab! Thanks for all your help Adam!
