Our Studio
Urban Nádúr is Irish Gaelic meaning Urban Nature.
A name devised by fusing the founders two worlds.
At Urban Nádúr we believe that everything you see should inspire, evoke emotion and awaken your senses.
Our design studio is dedicated to creating beautiful and meaningful outdoor spaces, immersive natural sanctuaries that offer personal reflections of your identity, enhancing how you want to live.
Our conscious, intelligent, well-designed and thoughtfully executed approach, aims to foster your connection to the natural world. We use immersive planting and natural materials. With a mission to enrich lives, where people and wildlife interact and coexist harmoniously, we strive for you to not only enjoy, but truly love your outdoor space.
We value our client relations, meeting with you to discuss your garden aspirations, look at your space and share ideas to help us collate your client brief.

Urban Nádúr design studio was created by Mary Kate who spent her childhood between north London and the rugged west of Ireland.
She fostered a deep connection with the dramatic and unspoilt landscape, loved the freedom to explore the fields, natural rivers, bog lands and mountains, and learned that with love and care the land will provide for all. Her family were and still remain, committed custodians of their green land, protecting it for nature’s inhabitants and future generations.
Mary Kate’s creative career started in fashion design and buying, before she pursued her true passion as a garden designer. She’s passionate about the connection and healing qualities nature provides and the power and beauty of our land. In a small way she aims to help her clients feel that connection, heal in and enjoy their urban spaces.
She brings a deep appreciation of natural plant communities, ecological horticulture and the shifting line between art, beauty and wildness to her design sensibility, with meticulous yet sympathetic attention to detail and, where possible ecologically, the lightest of touch.
