Our specialisation is the enhancement of real places that have personality and atmosphere, making special places that people love to visit and spend time in
Schoolgrounds design
Effectively designed school grounds and playgrounds result in very positive impacts on childrens' behaviour.
Natural play areas
Natural playgrounds, and the enhancement of traditional play spaces, take exploration, adventure and learning to another level.
Family gardens
Low maintenance, cost effective landscape designs that rejuvenate the spirit, are fun, beautiful, sustainable and look great too.
Hampden Street School
Our most recent project with Hampden Street School was an awe-inspiring outdoor learning environment....
"If you want to do something good for a child, give them an environment where they can touch things as much as they want."

St. Joseph's RC School
"When it comes to caring about this project, no one does it better than you! Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this project. We love the plans and are excited to get the project underway."
Chair of PTA, St Joseph’s RC School, Nelson, May 2016
Organic Farm
"Working with Leaves of Green was very rewarding as it helped us to learn how to ‘read’ our land, understanding it’s micro climates in different areas, and how to best work with it’s natural opportunities as well as it’s challenges. Guy gave us the confidence to start a brand new lifestyle section designed with sustainability and permaculture principles in mind – invaluable to us, as we had very little experience when we started."
Christian and Eva Mairoll, Motueka River Valley
