 Naomi Atkinson 
================

 Garden Designer

   In their own words 
--------------------

 Naomi has been with Jo Thompson Landscape & Garden Design for many years and has worked alongside Jo to develop a lot of the gardens in their portfolio. Naomi graduated from London College of Garden Design in 2018, having previously completed qualifications in Horticulture at Capel Manor College in London. Naomi is a self-proclaimed garden obsessive – whilst training she even lived in a caravan on a garden she was studying. When it comes to design approach, Naomi takes inspiration from the natural landscape as well as philosophy, architecture and art. She is planning several international trips including Picos de Europea to see the Spring wildflowers and Japan to learn more about garden design theory Miegakure. Naomi spends most of her free time in the garden. That’s where you’ll find her year round, living on hot chocolate in the winter. She’s even been known to garden in the dark...
