Bringing Spaces to Life Through Plants & Design

Hi, I'm Louis Schultz-Wiremu, the founder of LEAF CHIEFS.

I started LEAF CHIEFS to create beautiful, thoughtfully designed green spaces that people genuinely enjoy spending time in. I work with both private and commercial clients, designing, supplying, and installing gardens and planting schemes that transform the way people live, work, and connect with nature.

Whether it's a private garden, rooftop terrace, office, restaurant, hotel, wellness studio, or event space, every project is designed around the people who use it. I believe planting should be more than just decorative, it should bring character, improve wellbeing, and most of all, feel alive, benefitting all users of the garden.

My work specialises in bespoke garden design, consultation, planting design, soft landscaping, interior planting, planter installations and garden development. Every design is tailored to your space and the level of maintenance that suits your lifestyle, ensuring your garden or planting scheme continues to thrive long after installation.
