Testimonials

Googong

“We found Kate through our land sales consultant when we purchased a block in Googong. We were moving from Sydney so once we got to the landscaping part of our build Kate was amazing at helping us get things done as we were not always able to come down to the block. Kate arranged our driveway and front garden landscaping including the retaining walls. She was always available on the phone and via email and if I did have to leave a voicemail she always called back.

Thank you Kate for making things easy for us and for the great outcome.

We would recommend Soul 2 Soil (Kate and team) to anyone looking for having any type of landscaping done.”

Campbell

“Kate has provided us with a fully detailed and comprehensive plan for our garden renovation in Campbell. The renovation is extensive and includes front and back garden, hedge replacement, removal of garden architecture and installation of new architecture together with removal of unsuitable plants and replacement with new varieties. We were very impressed by Kate’s knowledge, attention to detail and professional approach. She listened carefully to our requirements, worked with us through several iterations, was available for advice and suggestions during the process and delivered a timely and elegant solution. Her plans are much appreciated by the landscapers who will carry out the work, while being fully comprehensible to the lay-person. The cheerful, competent and inclusive attitude that Kate brings to her work made the process a pleasure for us.”

Queanbeyan City Council

“Queanbeyan City Council came across Kate O’Hara a number of years ago whilst Kate was completing her studies in Landscape Architecture. Staff of the Parks and Recreation Department of Council were impressed with Kate’s skills in landscape design and her enthusiasm for community based projects. As a result Council engaged Kate to undertake the landscape and upgrade of the Barracks Flat Park project. Kate impressed Council with her dedication to research the history and context of the site to implement relevancy in her design.

A number of landscape designs later and Council is still working with Kate. Her latest landscape design for Council is the Apex Park project, in conjunction with and with funding from the Queanbeyan Lions Club. The landscape design has been a collaborative effort where Kate, once again, has impressed Council with her integrated garden and play space design for all abilities and all ages. Kate has worked with staff of Council’s Urban Landscapes Department, Cultural Development Department and Community Services (disabilities) Department, the Lions Club and local community to develop the Apex Park landscape plan, that will become a widely used, impressive and amazing space for the Queanbeyan community. This space will be open to the Public in about 4 weeks time, but has already generated much interest and praise by the Queanbeyan community.

Thank you Kate, we have enjoyed working with you on this project and hope to work with you again on many more.”

Kingston Foreshore

“We hired Soul2Soil to help enhance our balcony space. From the initial concept through to sourcing plants and pots and to the final installation, Kate really understood our vision for the space.

She worked to the brief and was always quick to communicate with us throughout each stage of the project. This meant that we were able to keep within our budget whilst not compromising on the look and quality of the design. Following installation Kate provided us with all the information and advice we needed in order to ensure our garden prospered. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and we have no hesitation in recommending Soul2Soil for any job, small or large.”

Erindale Neighbourhood Centre

“A group of community organisations is starting a neighbourhood garden at Erindale in Canberra in early 2015. Kate O’Hara of Soul2Soil Landscape Design provided a terrific concept design for our garden. From consultation to on-time delivery of a thoughtfully produced design, Kate was interested and professional. Kate listened to what we wanted in our garden. She developed her design with those specifications incorporated, and built on them with creative flair. Kate’s design will help us build the garden we wanted. Thank you.”
