Lilly and Day is formed of the dynamic partnership of Lilly–Joan Richardson and Vanessa Day.


After several years of working closely together at the design studios of RK Alliston they looked ahead to combine their skills and create a new and exciting venture from which Lilly and Day was born.

Lilly having carried out a degree in gardening and technical drawing in Germany then continued to study garden design and horticulture at Middlesex University, serving her a full and extensive knowledge in this field.

Vanessa became inspired when working for the Royal Horticultural society on such events Chelsea Flower Show. Taking her previous education in Fine Arts she combined this and completed a diploma in Garden and Landscape design at Chelsea Harbor.

By collaborating their past knowledge and years of experience in design and project management they are able to approach and complete unique and successful gardens; projects ranging from the ‘intimate’ London courtyard to the more expansive spaces of the country garden.

With an imaginative use of design and emphasis on detailing, Lilly and Day work closely with each client and the brief set to create unique and beautiful gardens that will become and inspirational element to the home throughout the seasons.
