PORTFOLIO
ABOUT MATTHIEU MEHUYS
Matthieu Mehuys is a Belgian landscape architect, regenerative garden designer, and lifelong nature enthusiast. Raised on a farm, he fell in love with plants early, amazed that a tiny seed could grow into food, shelter, or a thriving ecosystem. That fascination became his calling.
Driven to understand ecological systems more deeply, he pursued a Bachelor’s degree in Landscape Architecture, followed by a Master’s in Landscape Architecture in Munich, Germany where he learned the importance of rigor and precision in lanscape design.
Through his landscape design studio Paulownia and his online course Garden of Your Dreams, Matthieu helps people create beautiful, low-maintenance gardens that work with nature.
His approach blends aesthetics, biodiversity, and practical regenerative principles to bring outdoor spaces to life, no matter the size.
Why It Matters
Matthieu believes gardens are more than just pretty spaces, they’re powerful ecosystems. By restoring soil, encouraging pollinators, and planting with purpose, anyone can turn their garden into a place that heals both people and the planet.
The Mission
Matthieu’s mission is simple: to inspire and guide as many people as possible to reconnect with nature, regenerate the land, and create thriving outdoor spaces rooted in natural balance to leave the Earth better for future generations.
