LONDON (PRWEB) May 02, 2017 -- MyGardenSchool today launches a new online course for people all over the world with city gardens who want to create designer outdoor spaces – ‘Small & Urban Gardens’. Annie Guilfoyle, Former Director of Garden Design at top London design and interiors college, KLC is the latest in a string of world experts (including Piet Oudolf, and tutor turned investor, Dr Noel Kingsbury) to join MyGardenSchool.

This new online gardening course is aimed at anyone in the world who wants to create their own personal sanctuary. The new online small and urban gardens course costs $465 and provides personal access to top garden designer and lecturer, Annie Guilfolye for 6 weeks. It inspires those who want to rebuild or restructure a small backyard or just redecorate a corner to get more privacy and atmosphere and host beautiful soirées summer after summer. This course can be a starting point for several exciting projects, such as renovating an old rooftop into a new bar in the neighborhood, as well as rearranging the herb section in an existing and well-designed backyard. For a preview of the course, please click: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0rmU1HUCSw

Annie will guide the user step-by-step throughout the design process, starting with where to get inspiration and how to assess the site. The next stage is surveying and analyzing every element of the garden, before working on the site arrangement and the detailed design. Once the user is happy with the layout of the garden, there is the option to choose and design the planting scheme that is the perfect fit for the garden. If you have a small garden that is really puzzling you, then this is the course for you. Annie gives personal feedback throughout the course and marks all set assignments.

Anne commented: “Small gardens, whether urban or rural, can seem daunting when it comes to designing and arranging the space and selecting the right plants. The size restriction may seem like a disadvantage but this actually is not the case. It is true that with smaller gardens you need to make every single element work hard. Sometimes you need to make one thing have two uses. For example, a retaining wall can also act as a seat and so on.”

Annie Guilfoyle is an award-winning garden designer with her design studio Creative Landscapes in West Sussex (UK). Her work is varied from contemporary to traditional and urban to rural. She has been the Director of Garden Design at KLC School of Design and now teaches at the world famous gardens of Great Dixter (UK), Chanitcleer (USA) and West Dean (UK). She lectures in Denmark, Russia, Italy and the USA. Annie is inspired by the natural landscape, modern art and architecture and writes regularly for the premier UK garden magazines such as Gardens Illustrated and has been commissioned to write a book on the creative approach to garden design.

Elspeth Briscoe, Founder, MyGardenSchool commented: “There are millions of enthusiasts out there who would like to make the most of their outdoor space. Some are passionate about plants, but there are many who simply would like a world class garden designer to help them optimize their outside space for entertaining and relaxing in. Particularly in urban and city gardens, people are often unsure how to make a narrow or small dark space into an oasis. Top designers and horticulturists like Piet Oudolf, Noel Kingsbury, and Annie Guilfoyle are embracing the opportunity to impart their knowledge, alongside the more traditional forms of hands-on designing gardens in person.”

Briscoe added: “It is commonly accepted that a harmonious and thoughtful garden adds between 5% and 15% to the value to your property and even more after some years. Not only is it a great financial investment to re-design your outside space, but it will change the way you entertain and use your house. Garden designers often charge by the hour. Their rates can vary between $75 to $250 depending on where you are and in which country. You would definitely not be able to hire a top garden design for 6 weeks in the offline world for $465!"

MyGardenSchool has created a single sharing community for enthusiasts. It’s providing a thriving place to connect, wherever they are in the world. A place where they can not only share gardening questions and answers on a peer-to-peer basis, but also connect with world-class experts who they’d never normally meet.

Be one of the first on our new online course on Small and Urban Gardens today and start your course at any time from 31st of May 2017. Book Here.
