About Us
NICK HAMPTON
Nick has been designing things for over twenty years. As a qualified interior designer as well as holding a bachelor of arts in motion picture medium, Nick’s primary passion has always been with planning spaces. He worked as an architectural draughtsman before spending several years in art departments for numerous feature film and television productions. His real passion for gardens started when he moved to the U.K. in 2008 and began working for a residential landscaping company in South West London. After returning to South Africa, Nick met up with Wayne and they formed Oasis Design. He has been Head Designer and Co-director ever since.

Wayne has exceptional inter-personal skills and knows how to get things done. He is a true problem solver.
The Team
Gugs, Liston, Juma, Isaac and Masiza
We are incredibly proud of our hard-working, reliable and trustworthy team. They work tirelessly, pouring their hearts into their work and developing their wide range of skills with each project completed. From detailed carpentry to complex irrigation systems, our team brings a high level of expertise and a wonderful atmosphere at every site.
Our Approach
Our philosophy is simple: We get to know our clients and respond with a design solution that empowers them to live the life they love. We begin by learning how our clients want to live in order to give them an outdoor space that enables that. Some people love entertaining, others want to find a quiet corner and read a book. It means your garden is all about you. And it should’t be any other way.
