About Me

Elspeth Briscoe

I'm a landscape designer with a post grad diploma from Oxford College of Garden Design PGDip OCGD (distinction). I spent many years working for Internet companies (eBay and Skype), and most recently have co-founded www.my-garden-school.com with Duncan Heather (Principal of The Oxford College of Garden Design).  My objective is to encourage people to treat their outside space with the same respect as they treat their indoor space. I believe that we should think as deeply and carefully about the usage, style and design of our exteriors as we do our interiors. 

As well as being passionate about design and horticulture, I have a long standing interest in technology and the future. I was one of the first 30 people at eBay.co.uk and loved the innovation side of helping to build a groundbreaking internet company. I don't believe my passions for garden design and technology are mutually exclusive. I look forward to a world where we can use our intelligent technologies to help us work with our natural environments. 

Before starting my post grad diploma course in landscape design I spent several years as a hobbiest photographer and artist. I did a pre-foundation at St Martin's Art college many years ago, and held an exhibition at Lauderdale House in Highgate several years later. Some of my art and photography can be seen in my flickr account below.
 

My ambition for MyGardenSchool is to link up the
best gardening academics in the world, with gardening enthusiasts across the globe, via the internet.  I also believe that everything can be beautiful, and have a good design aesthetic, including internet sites.  And I don't believe geography now limits our capacity for learning.  I'd like MyGardenSchool to become the default destination for learning about gardening on the internet, delivering the best gardening courses in the world
