I left “Corporate Life” in the mid-nineties to provide consultancy services to irrigation component manufacturers in Israel and sustainable decking and energy efficient led lighting Companies here in the UK. We devised the Company name - Verdant - relating to green lawns and lush planting resulting from pop up sprinklers and controlled automated watering - and Bright - relating to the outdoor ambiance that can be created via effective lighting. Since 2004,  Verdant and Bright have worked with associates on a wide range of  projects for ourselves - including property development and garden design and construction. We re-launched as Verdant and Bright Garden and Home Ltd. in 2019 as by then we had fulfilled a variety of interesting challenges and wanted to offer our services to the wider private home owner market. Completed projects include :

• Obtaining planning permission for "garden grabs" : identifying the potential of surplus garden land on which to design and construct bespoke new property. We built three new homes that way -  including obtaining and fulfilling planning permission for a plot around my own family home as the initial project.
• Property development - the acquisition of 2 attached semis and 1 detached house, which we refurbished, rented, then extended and sold as 3 desirable modernised homes from what started off as "complete wrecks"
• Conversion of a disused stable block into a 2 bedroom stand alone 'granny annexe" - identified land around the client's newly acquired farmhouse that could support a new build and obtained planning permission for one thus enabling our client to profit from the sale of that excess land once p.p. had been granted
• We converted a disused garage with a store above into an end of terrace, town centre location 2 bedroom "property/man pad".
• We separated a semi-detached bungalow and turned it into a four bedroom detached family home
• We transformed a '60's "time warp" detached dormer bungalow into a prestigious, contemporary family home with extensive porcelain tiled terrace and low maintenance exterior with levelled lawns.
• Since the above, we have carried out numerous extensions and garden builds for private clients….including...when the budget was available…the transformation of the outdoor space that was impacted by the extension work...including the home that we downsized to and then that of our near neighbours!

In my twilight years I have decided to focus on "gardens" and to share my experience of designing and transforming outdoor spaces so as to help you avoid potential pitfalls and to obtain good and fair value for money from your preferred contractor for the implementation of a design that you will have invested in and really like. We also offer a full range of architectural services in conjunction with Samrai Associates if your vision is to extend and transform your existing property into a home where the interior flows seamlessly into the exterior with a co-ordinated and synchronised style. Maybe we could design a dream bespoke home for your own individual plot! Please see www.samrai-associates.co.uk to view examples of our collaborations.

We are just updating our photo gallery which will feature some of the above projects and will publish it on this website asap.

In the meantime we would be delighted to hear from you and provide consultancy and design service support to help you with your vision...
