Meet Manoj

An RHS show judge, RHS ambassador, and celebrated Chelsea Flower Show medallist, Manoj is probably best known for his appearances on television shows such as the BBC garden show ‘Your Garden Made Perfect’ and Channel 4’s ‘Garden of the Year’, where his easy manner and characteristic enthusiasm have proved a truly winning combination.

As a former creative director, with a master’s degree in fashion design from the Royal College of Art, Manoj cites both his Indian ancestry and the 18 years he spent working in the fashion industry as the two greatest influences on his vibrant design style. Highly adept at weaving both texture and colour into his planting schemes, Manoj remarks that “designing a planting scheme is like creating a beautiful silk print”, joking that he has "gone from haute couture to 'hort' couture".

Your Outdoor Room: How to Design a Garden You Can Live In

In his debut publication, Manoj hopes to take you on your very own design journey, unlocking your confidence, and helping you to discover exactly what it is you want from your outdoor space. Like having your own professional garden designer at your fingertips, this simple yet inspiring guide is for anyone who wants to make more of their garden but doesn’t know where to start.
