Garden Design in Sussex

At Studio Hummingbird, we understand that moving into a new home—whether downsizing or starting fresh—can bring a mix of excitement and loss, especially when it involves leaving behind a cherished garden. You’d love your new outdoor space to reflect your personality and bring you joy, all without the burden of constant maintenance.

I’m Victoria, the founder of Studio Hummingbird, and I specialise in crafting bespoke garden designs for discerning clients across Sussex and Surrey.

Working to your unique needs and lifestyle, my goal is to transform your outdoor space into a sanctuary that feels like a thoughtfully designed extension of your home.

For Retired Couples

For those who have recently downsized, the transition can be bittersweet. You may find yourself longing for the beauty and comfort of your previous garden—the space where you made cherished memories and enjoyed quiet moments.

Imagine stepping into a new garden that not only reflects the charm of your past but also brings you joy in this new chapter of life.

Together, we create a serene retreat that allows you to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy leisurely afternoons or gatherings with loved ones. With a focus on thoughtful, low-maintenance design, your garden provides you with more time to savour the things you love most.

For Time-Pressed Individuals

For those with a demanding lifestyle, your garden will become a sanctuary of calm—an escape from the daily hustle, where you can unwind, recharge, and find peace, all just steps from your door. Imagine, a beautifully designed garden, where you can relax after a hectic day or host friends, whether daytime or evening.

With Studio Hummingbird, I create a low-maintenance garden that enhances your busy lifestyle, allowing you to enjoy effortless beauty without the stress of constant upkeep.

My Design Approach

From concept to completion, I guide you through every step of the process, ensuring your new garden feels personal, practical, and deeply connected to your home. The result is a space that enhances your lifestyle and offers peace of mind.

Victoria Rumens

Client Love

Victoria was a great help in designing a beautiful and practical new look for our small square plot. She took all our often confusing and conflicting requests and produced a clean simple design which was better than anything we could have imagined. She is particularly good at incorporating scale into her work so that when it is complete our garden will look both bigger and more visually interesting than we could have made it by ourselves. Brava Victoria! We would strongly recommend you!

I was so happy to have found Victoria Rumens and to have her help me plan my garden. I had a rough idea of what I wanted, but Victoria was able to put my thoughts into a 3D plan so that I could see exactly what the garden would look like. I also found that contractors preferred to have a plan to work from.
The whole process from start to finish was a pleasure and Victoria was so helpful and accommodating of any changes I wanted to make. I ended up with a wonderful garden design and a walk-through video that made the plan come alive! The cost was very reasonable and it was worth spending on the plan to prevent costly mistakes on the job.
I would thoroughly recommend using Victoria at Studio Hummingbird for garden planning.

I asked Victoria if she would take on my garden design project which was a challenging project. From the very first contact I knew I had contacted the right person. From phone calls to site visits and follow ups Victoria at all times was a pleasure to work with.
The designs as well as the fly through layouts were fantastic and I cannot recommend her services enough.
I now have friends interested in using her services already and my project is not yet finished which is praise to her work

Victoria of ‘Studio Hummingbird’ was recommended by our interior designer, who knows her previous work. We were not disappointed. She provided an in depth consultation to establish our aims, needs, style preferences and budget. She presented multi aspect computer generated plans, drawings and walk through designs with suggestions for plants, water feature and patios. Plus, a detailed quote and project schedule. The whole process was collaborative and she willingly accepted and included several of our suggestions.

She often works with Eddie King , of King Landscaping Ltd. He & his team were a pleasure to work with. Punctual, informative and very professional.

We are delighted with our finished garden and have no hesitation in recommending Victoria & Studio Hummingbird.

I was so pleased to be referred to Victoria as I did not know where to start with designing my garden. I now have an amazing garden space, which has given me a space outside which I will definitely get more use out of.
I am looking forward to getting it planted up and new furniture in situ ready for warmer weather
I wanted a bespoke water feature, and her design and the finished product were amazing.
I would recommend Victoria/ Studio Hummingbird Design 110%.

My husband was fortunate enough to win a voucher from Studio Hummingbird for a consultation with Victoria.
Victoria visited me in my garden, already with an idea of my vague thoughts. It was fascinating to hear all her interesting ideas for a design for my garden & I was left feeling very positive about how my garden could be transformed.
Victoria is very professional but, at the same time, friendly & interested & very easy to talk to. I really appreciated all her advice & hope to be able to work on this in the future.
