Branche Landscapes Ltd

Branche Landscapes have been wonderful to work with ; they have created for me a garden and space that I can truly relax in , whilst also be in functional; I love it and get many positive comments from people as they walk by. Regular maintenance makes for a trouble free environment and I value the ongoing contact and ready ear for advice and suggestions. Thankyou Branche.

Arnaud and his team are very professional, engaging and talented landscapers. Our vision for a property has come to life and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. While we did experience some delays, it was well worth the wait. Thanks Branché Landscapes!

Before the transformation, the back garden was very sloped and difficult to use. We actually came across Branche Landscapes after Nicki saw their ute during a traffic jam in Lake Road, and we investigated their website. Arnaud visited for a consultation, and came up with an amazing idea for transforming our garden into a Chic Tropical Oasis. The final garden is much better than we ever expected - it reflects Arnaud’s vision and experience. He looked at the original site and could see something completely different to what we could imagine. We would never have thought of having the coloured walls, or the lighting system. The first time we turned on the lights in the evening and looked down from the top deck we were all totally overwhelmed. The garden was finished just in time for Labour Weekend and Nicki’s birthday, including the spa pool being installed. This is perfect, as we were getting quite discouraged by lockdown, but we now have a whole new Oasis to enjoy for summer. The garden now has 3 tiers, including the beautiful spa pool under the palm tree. The colours and plants are beautiful. The garden is lovely both in the day and at night with the lights on, and on Auckland’s many rainy days. We have used the garden more in the last 2 weeks than in the entire 6 years we have lived here. We have had spas, pizza dinners and picnics. The boys (aged 9) are enjoying the extra outdoor space, and looking forward to sleeping out there in their tent. Thank you so much Arnaud and the team for creating this dream garden for our family to enjoy for many years to come! We have our own tropical oasis at home!

From inception through to completion Arnaud and his professional team listened to our requirements and delivered a stunning tropical garden. Our entrance way has now become a welcoming experience. The workmanship of our deck and landscaping were completed to a very high standard. The customised plaster wall and gate complete with a water feature and outdoor lighting compete this beautiful space. Our garden has certainly added value to our property. We are very happy with the outcome!

Over twenty years ago, we bought and began a restoration and new build project on our inner-city home, here in Auckland. The existing 150yr old house had suffered from terrible neglect and water ingress and the garden had been a dumping ground. After many years slog, the house was finished, but the garden, after it's initial landscaping, needed guidance and help with ongoing maintenance. A leaflet ' magically ' arrived in our letterbox ! I googled Branche Landscapes, read about the company and all it's glowing reviews and made an appointment for a consult with owner and Managing Director, Arnaud Daurat - best decision ever ! I found that Arnaud, as a landscape designer and architect, listened deeply to our wants. His breadth of plant knowledge for this locale, plant systems and nutrition and his ideas for tweaking our existing design for a better outcome, truly inspired. A plan for future care and maintenance was made. Over the last two years, his associate Val - also an extremely knowledgeable plantsman - and their maintenance team, have arrived punctually at the appointed times, restored and nurtured our garden - their clean-ups impeccable - and we couldn't be happier. In life - there are moments of beautiful serendipity. For us, finding Branche Landscape's leaflet in our letterbox was one of them. Graeme and Felicity Kidd.

From the moment of the first consultation , I knew I was in creative professional hands . Arnaud provided a fountain of creative ideas , for my site , based on my own work and what I enjoy . They revisited the site many times to work through a few technical ideas and presented me with a delightful design . The starting date to install the garden was a way off ( as they are not a well kept secret ). However the work began , when he indicated it would . The team were knowledgeable , professional , respectful and delightful. The communication was excellent . The garden is divine - Arnaud created a beautiful landscape and entry for my studio , including a garden sculpture, which Blanche landscapes designed , based on the work I do . Plus working with electricians to create wonderful under lighting .... Honestly I could not recommend Blanche scapes more strongly for their creativity , attention to detail and ease at which they installed the beautiful art garden -

From the start the planning was meticulous with an eye for detail and a great way of 'thinking outside the box". The vision for our urban garden surpassed our imagination and watching it grow and mature over the last year has been a real pleasure. The joy of looking at our new garden and hosting guests is now the highlight of our house. Thank you Arnaud and The Team for this transformation.

Absolutely amazing. Working with Arnaud and his team was a dream. The garden is beyond our expectations. I would recommend Branche Landscapes to everyone. From the initial consultation through to the garden being built and installed, it was a breeze. Great communication and a thoughtful and beautiful design that is going to bring us joy for years to come. Just standing in the garden now and looking around I still have these 'wow' moments. It's everything we asked for and more.

Branche' Landscapes turned our back yard from an eyesore into a productive work of art. Our brief was that we wanted an 'EDIBLE OASIS' which included fruit trees, a vegetable garden, composting bins, a berry house, a potting bench & a fire pit for when we entertain. We got so much more. Arnaud's vision with design, his horticultural expertise & his commitment to excellence produced an environment that we both are now immensely proud of. His attention to detail is extraordinary. We will enjoy the fruits of Branche's effort's for many years to come. His men were respectful, considerate & tidy. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Branche' Landscapes to those looking for quality workmanship & design flair. The project was completed on Budget.

Arnaud’s and the team at Branché were amazing. From the initial concept, right through to the completion of the project, we had a first class experience. Arnaud has a unique blend of creative flair and practical know how. Arnaud’s eye for design helped to bring my ideas to life and take the design to the next level. We had a difficult site to work with... and Arnaud and the team were able to work through the challenges and make things happen. Not everything always go to plan, but Branche Landscapes were able to work through complications in a way that was very stress free for me. We are extremely happy with the end result. We spend time in our garden everyday and I get great pleasure from seeing the garden flourish through the seasons. I would have never been able to achieve this result myself... or through any other landscaper.

We have rated the Branche team very highly as they deserve it. Our previous contractors left us stranded - after many interviews we chose Arnaud and his 'argonaughts', Cam & Val who worked like Trojans. Their quote did not come in at the shallow end but the result will, we believe, be featured on their website when the hedges have grown. Highest recommendation!

We inherited a busy overgrown inner city garden when we purchased our house. We lived with the garden for 6 years before decided to do something about it. Our brief to Branche was to create a calm, peaceful and contemplative garden. Arnaud is a very intuitive and creative person and a good listener. He understands the brief completely. Apart from some small tweaks, we basically adopted his recommendations for the garden layout and the planting. And the result is amazing, well exceeded our expectations. He is an ultimate professional. He took us through the process and the cost structure in details and organized his team in a very professional and timely manner. We went overseas during part of the process and had confident in him and his team to deliver the result when we came back. We were not disappointed . We came home to a beautiful garden ! Every morning we wake up and look out to the beautiful garden and have this sense of joy before stepping out to the busy world.
