19/06/10 - Isola Garden Design & Forest team up for RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 2010

Isola Garden Design has teamed up with the UK's leading manufacturer of decrotive garden timber products, Forest, to create a stunning centrepiece at the forth coming Hampton Court: Inspiring Spaces showcase.

The inspiring showcase - which is sponsored by Forest - provides ideas on how to brighten up small and difficult areas such as patios, front gardens or balconies. Featuring ideas from a wide range of designers, the centre piece, aptly named The Glasshouse Garden, has been designed by Isola Garden Design and will feature products from Forest's extensive product ranges.

Taking centre stage at the Inspiring Spaces showcase, The Glass House Garden will provide an elegant and engaging environment. Raised timber planters and beds will lie side by side with novelty planting ideas including Wellington boots and watering cans. Planting will come in the shape of herbaceous cottage garden plants, vegetables, herbs and bursts of colourful flowers. Structural timber will also feature heavily with arches, arbours and fencing blending perfectly into the garden, whilst the Forest Glasshouse Pavilion takes pride of place in the heart of the garden.

James Brash, co-founder of Isola Garden Design, said; "Being able to get involved in Hampton Court Flower Show is a fantastic opportunityand a great way for us to showcase our design and planting skills. We're also extremely pleased to be working so closely with Forest.

As such an established brand, Forest has extensive knowledge on how best to dress a garden, as well as an expert eye for those timber products that will add an extra element and design focus to a garden. We're really looking forward to collaborating with them on the garden and being able to take away with us some of their know-how to use in our future projects."

04/08/09 - Record Breaking 2009

Despite the effects of the economic down turn that has faced us all in one way or another over the past 18 months, the garden design and landscape sector has remained stable.

Isola Garden Design has been fortunate to see a growth in enquiries since the down turn both in private and commercial commissions. This has been partially due to the steady stream of customers referring us to both friends and family. We have also been fortunate enough to secure two high profile commercial contracts. The first is the Pavestone UK Show Garden, which can be seen at BPS Gardenforce, Leamington Spa. We were also delighted to secure a contract for the new retaining walls and raised terrace which we completed at Kings High School, Warwick.

28/03/09 - Isola Build New Show Garden for Pavestone UK

Isola Garden Design impressed management from Pavestone UK and BPS Garden Force, Leamington Spa's leading landscape supplier, with thier inspirational design to show off the wide range of natural paving Pavestone has to offer for 2009.

Since early March, Team Isola have been working hard building their design in time for the open day on Saturday, 25th April. The open day promises to be a fun day for all the family, with face painting, music and famous characters such as Dalek's and Darfader to name but a few.

The new indoor show garden promises to give the public imaginative ideas on how to use natural stone products in thier own gardens. It also demonstrates different styles of garden from cottage to contemporary.

Come down on Saturday, 25th April to meet the faces behind Isola Garden Design & talk to the team.

01/11/08 - Young Landscapers Gain Industry Recognition

Isola Garden Design, a midlands-based landscaping business set up in 2006 by two young newly-qualified landscapers, has been awarded full membership of the British Association of Landscape Industries (BALI) - the landscape industry's premier professional trade body.

The two young entrepreneurs share a youthful passion for designing and building innovative and unique outdoor living spaces and, having successfully traded as probationary BALI members for two years, have now satisfied the Association's strict entry criteria for Full Contractor Membership.

The British Association of Landscape Industries was established in 1972 to drive up standards in the landscape industry. Achieving Full Contractor Membership is notoriously difficult and requires extremely high standards of workmanship and customer service. Once achieved, BALI members must submit to a regular Quality Standards Review, ensuring that they continue to warrant displaying the coveted BALI logo. There are only just over 500 landscaping businesses across the country who currently hold this accolade.

James believes this achievement will give the business a sound professional platform on which to build:

"Matt and I love what we do and I think that comes through in our designs and the quality of our work. But, as a new business, and being young too, it was vital to establish our credibility with potential customers. Now that we can officially display the BALI logo our clients have a guarantee that we will deliver a quality assured service from start to finish."

25/07/08 - New Website Launched

James and Matt would like to welcome you to the new Isola website. We hope that it will give you an insight into what Isola is all about and the people behind it.
