Antony Daniels’ Biography

After many years working in the corporate world, I decided to make a change in my career and committed to pursuing something I was not only immensely passionate about but, as I soon came to realise, was naturally talented at. Prior to my change in career, I worked in financial services (corporate pensions) for over 20 years. During this time, I performed several roles covering design consultancy, proposition and product development, and service provider management. These have given me essential transferrable skills including project management (APM qualified), developing business cases, and most crucially designing and delivering solutions to meet client needs. My working experience and horticultural knowledge has been combined into a landscape and garden design business: Sensus Loci. .

Design Philosophy

I have always been passionate about the landscape that we live in, even from an early age growing up on my grandfather’s farm in the middle of Dartmoor. The garden and the wider landscape have played an important part in my private life, and I now have the privilege and the joy of making it part of my working life as well. I believe our outdoor spaces, both public and private, are essential to our wellbeing and that we should utilise that space to its full potential. I strive to create environments that provide areas for rest, relaxation, reflection and recreation. My approach is to fully understand every clients’ needs and wants for their outdoor space, and to marry these with the physical attributes of the surrounding landscape and architecture. I aim to unite these elements to create sustainable spaces that are harmonious with the locale and environment.
