Tomas Olesen
============

  [tomasolesengardendesign.co.uk](https://tomasolesengardendesign.co.uk/)

Tomas Olesen is a spatial and furniture designer turned garden designer, bringing over a decade of experience in fabrication, installation, and material-led design.

He has worked internationally, creating technical installations for artists such as Louis Masai and INSA, and designing immersive environments for the Saatchi Gallery and Moniker Art Fair. His practice also includes socially engaged work, such as a V&A mentoring project helping newly housed people create furniture from reclaimed materials.

Tomas brings this blend of craft, structure, and narrative to garden design. Applying the technical rigour of his own bonsai practice, he treats each border like a three-dimensional artwork, using structural pruning and precise placement to create atmosphere, integrity, and “instant age.”
