Our founder, Daniel Cooper, has always felt the most like himself in nature. From a young age, he explored his deep-rooted connection to the great outdoors and an appreciation for all the beauty and wonder they offer us. He was naturally drawn to the study and practice of horticulture and founded Modern Outdoor Design in 2006, after completing his Diploma of Horticulture and 4 years of work in the field. With his 20 years of experience, Daniel now helms our talented team dedicated to helping you create your personal retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city.

We specialise in green spaces that are amazing to look at, relaxing to be in, and simple to maintain. With your vision and our expertise, your garden will not only be an extension of your living space, but your favourite place to be. We are as excited about bringing our expertise to your project as we are about getting stuck into the hard work.

While we stay ahead of the trends, our focus is on designing highly functional, water-wise, and climate-adaptive environments that complement your lifestyle and bring you joy.
