Jonathan Barraket is the principal and founder of TGS Landscape Architects. After graduating from high school Jonathan continued his tertiary education as an engineering student at the University of Technology, Sydney. It took several years but eventually he realised that his talents for design and creativity could not be fully utilised as an engineer and so he decided that a change of discipline was needed. With a keen interest of all things outdoors and as a descendant from a long line of accomplished gardeners, it was logical to think that a profession in Landscape Architecture is where his future lay.

In its infancy the concept of TGS Landscape Architects began in the late 1990’s as a small landscape construction and maintenance company. It was called The Gardenscape Specialist and was established as a way of self educating and expanding Jonathan’s knowledge-base and experience whilst studying at University.

With the need to develop himself further he found work with Civic Trees, a large mature tree nursery and landscape construction company. Here he was able to refine his craft and gain valuable experience in the landscape industry.

Following the completion of his degree, Jonathan worked as a Landscape Architect for several companies in Sydney. He still enjoyed working outdoors and continued on with The Gardenscape Specialist on a part time basis, however, by 2003 with his growing experience both in the design office and out in the field, he was ready to start something on his own, and so the beginnings of TGS Landscape Architects was born.

Now with over 15 years experience, Jonathan and his team have worked with some of the largest companies, architectural firms and developers in Sydney, and together they have consistently produced high quality landscape designs that are an asset to each project. With their understanding that time is money the importance of meeting a deadline is paramount. TGS Landscape Architects will give you the assurance that the landscape designs they produce are delivered within budget and within its specified time frame.

Even if they are creating the external landscapes for a new Bunning’s Warehouse or designing something for your home, you can be confident that you are getting a high quality, practical, and cutting edge design that will push you to the edge of your internal boundaries and out into the magazine lifestyle that you’ve always wanted.
