The Practice

Robert Myers Associates is a landscape architecture and garden design practice, with studios in Cambridge and Worcestershire. We work in many different contexts, urban and rural. Our clients include private individuals and rural estates, developers and institutions such as cathedrals, universities and schools. We are listed in Country Life’s Top 100 experts on interiors and exteriors, and have won many awards including the Society of Garden Designers’ Grand Award 2017 and six gold medals at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

The practice operates as a Limited Company and is a registered practice of the Landscape Institute. All Directors and Associates are professionally qualified Chartered Landscape Architects. Although small enough to be responsive and non-corporate, the practice has an IT infrastructure big enough to handle large and complex projects as part of a multi-disciplinary design team.

Robert Myers

Director

RMA is led creatively and practically by Robert Myers, who has won six gold medals and the People’s Choice Award at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Robert particularly enjoys the challenges of working in complex historic landscapes and significant public spaces; he also likes working with clients over the long term – both with organisations such as the Wellcome Trust at the Genome Campus at Hinxton, and with private clients such as the Earl of Boscawen at Tregothnan and James and Elizabeth Saunders Watson at Rockingham Castle. He is as happy designing urban spaces as he is designing landscapes for country estates; his work in London ranges from roof gardens and urban squares, to the award-winning Magic Garden at Hampton Court Palace. A graduate of Girton College in Cambridge, Robert has long-established connections with both the university and the city. He has drawn up landscape plans for several Cambridge colleges including King’s, Clare and Girton itself, as well as the 50-year management strategy for the iconic landscape of The Backs, in the centre of the city. Robert is a Member of the Society of Garden Designers and a Chartered Member of the Landscape Institute, and sits on the Cambridge City Council Design and Conservation Panel.
