Yuan Xin

Sole principal of Yuanxin Studio.

Born in Suzhou, the garden city. Grew up in an alley beside the Master of Nets Garden.

Graduated from the University of Sheffield, studying English garden and naturalistic planting design.

After returning to China, joined July Cooperative, focusing on modern Japanese garden design.

In 2025, I founded Yuanxin Studio.

A good garden shouldn't be a "tug-of-war" between the designer, the builders, and the client. It should be one idea carried through from start to finish.

In this fast-paced world, I've chosen a simpler path: from the first meeting and design, to 3D rendering and construction drawings—I do it all myself.

A "one-person studio" to me means no loss in taste, no cut in quality. Just so that when I hand it over, the garden looks exactly the way we imagined it together.
