Meet our Principal Designer
Kylie Brinfield… award winning designer… lover of plants, all things gardens, outdoor spaces and beautiful design.
Kylie is the Owner and Director of Garden Insight, with a passion and knack for creating beautiful, functional design without compromise. She uses a collaborative approach to ensure clients share a part in their design creation, leading them on a journey to create timeless designs that bring life and nature into their home and back yard.
Kylie is a creative soul with a broad background in corporate project management. Borne from a deep love of nature and design, and a strong desire to help connect people to nature, she created Garden Insight to carve a career that combined her passion for gardens, plants and design.
To me, outdoor spaces represent freedom, space, living and connection.
“I am in this for a much broader reason than myself”
“Design to me is more than showing off my design skills, or ticking our Clients’ wishlists. It is about creating a lifestyle, an easy to use space for people to live and connect with their families, to themselves, and to nature. Memories are created there and when designed well, this has the potential to transform the way people live, connect and play at home.” Kylie
After growing up surrounded by a family of keen gardeners, Kylie armed herself with a Bachelor of Science, Diploma in Landscape Design and Horticulture, and has since developed a practical knowledge of construction working along side her partner in residential renovations. Following her studies, she developed her design skills alongside talented designers such as Ascher Smith and Revell Landscaping.
“Once starting the design process with Kylie it is clear that she has a vast knowledge of plants,
design and construction and will be a valued gemstone in your project -
translating between home owner to contractor...and from design through
to construction.“ B.Foster, Landscape Architect
Garden insight launched in 2013 and quickly moved into the residential space, beginning as a full design and installation company. Kylie’s hands on approach to managing her team of contractors gave her a deep understanding of the built form, material selection and installation methods.
Now practicing solely as a designer, alongside a select group of architects, and construction companies, her clients benefit from receiving a high end product, with a small company feel.
