About

A former magazine creative director bringing an editorial eye to elegant, deceptively simple gardens in London and beyond.

A former creative director for glossy magazines, Sheila Jack brings a highly trained artistic eye to the gardens she designs in London and beyond. The practice produces quietly elegant gardens with deceptively simple layouts characterised by curving paths and handsome brickwork, softened by naturalistic planting. Current projects include six or seven London gardens and the remodelling of a Georgian farmhouse in Wiltshire. The studio's editorial background shows in the discipline of its compositions — layouts that direct the eye with apparent effortlessness, with the machinery of design carefully concealed.
