About us.
Michelle Crawford
Director
Magnolia Creative Landscape Design is led by Michelle Crawford.
Michelle brings decades of international experience to New Zealand’s lush landscapes. Having designed outdoor spaces from Shanghai to Southern California, Michelle now blends global design expertise with Aotearoa’s unique environment and lifestyle.
She believes gardens are more than “outdoor areas.” They are an extension of your home, a sanctuary, a place to entertain, and a retreat from the everyday. Whether you're tucked into a beachside villa in Mount Maunganui, managing a rural lifestyle block in Cambridge, or living in a sleek city home in Remuera, we approach each project with an eye for elegance and a deep respect for local context.
We don’t do cookie-cutter design. We take the time to understand your property, your lifestyle, and how you want to feel when you step outside.
Let's talk
