ABOUT US
Creating Gardens with Meaning
At Manoj Maldé Garden Design, we believe a garden is more than a collection of plants; it is a living extension of the home. A place where nature, beauty, and people connect.
Founded in 2011, the studio creates expressive, colour-rich gardens that are rooted in culture, crafted with intention, and designed to evolve beautifully over time. Each project is deeply personal - shaped by the client’s lifestyle, architecture, and surroundings - resulting in spaces that feel both effortless and enduring.
