Landscape firm set up after Tatton show success

NORTH West landscape architecture firm C³ Landscape has said it is winning new business and interest in its ‘cubed’ flexible garden design concept, following success at this year’s Tatton show.

The company launched in July 2009, after Leeds Meteropolitain University students Alan Burns and Philip Dugdale unveiled their design concept at the RHS Tatton Flower Show, and went on to win ‘Best in Show’ in the Visionary Category.

The company said its new design concept allows gardens to be re-designed year on year quickly and easily using the same materials each time via a series of ‘cubes’ that build up the garden.

Mr Burns and Mr Dugdale, both 23, said their concept, called Cubed³, fuses urban features and landscaping with sustainable ecological design.

The designers have recently won a number of new accounts including creating visual concepts for fashion designer Kirsty Doyle’s Liverpool store.

The company is also working with architects to project manage the garden landscaping of a series of private mansions being built around the Bolton area.

Mr Burns said: “We are so excited about the events of the past two weeks. It was a huge honour to be asked to be part of Tatton Flower Show so early on in our careers and were blown away when we won Best in Show for Visionary Gardens.

“Everything has been a whirlwind since the show and we are so happy that people have been so enthusiastic about our vision.”

The award winning Modular Garden will be on display as part of the Kirsty Doyle flagship store in the MetQuarter, Liverpool from August 25.
