The gardener’s Plot

A conversation series from Sunhill House

The Gardener’s Plot is a storytelling space where gardens, gardeners, and the lives behind them take centre stage. From Sunhill House, Miranda brings together designers, home gardeners, urban growers, kitchen gardeners, and plant-obsessed thinkers to explore how gardens shape us and how we shape them.

This series honours the real, often imperfect stories behind garden making: the decisions, experiments, philosophies, failures, pivots, rituals, and small triumphs that bring a living landscape into being. Each feature shines a light on the person behind the garden, their hands, their history, their influences, their climate, their values.

Across interviews, photo essays, garden walk-throughs, and conversations around the table, The Gardener’s Plot becomes a place to meet the people who cultivate beauty, nourishment, and meaning in their own patch of earth. Honest conversations with the people who grow, tend, design, and imagine.

It’s part field note, part design study, part memoir of place, all in service to the idea that gardens are living stories, not finished products.

Some of the topics I explore are AI-assisted ecological design, human creativity in dialogue with new tools, the future of landscapes, home ecosystems, and regenerative life; and how people will design homes and gardens into the 2030s.

Generate By Design is more than just about a garden. It’s about a life, home, ecosystem co-designed with AI.

Alongside my husband and father who I live with, I’m collaboratively shaping land. systems, fitness, food, and home as a regenerative studio life supported by intelligent tools. The ethos of A’Vard Studio which is my xxxxxx
