Ruth co-founded CG in 2001 and leads the team. Ruth strives in her designs to create a ‘sense of place’ for each unique setting, taking inspirations from her love of gardens, architecture and the natural world. She is particularly enthusiastic about planting design, bringing colour and texture to both traditional and contemporary schemes. She trained in Garden Design at the Pickard School of Design following a senior role in the City and a Cambridge PhD in geology.
