Our People

Jeremy Killian — Founder of Natures Blueprint

Jeremy Killian

Founder

Born and raised in Cape Town beneath Table Mountain, Jeremy Killian developed a deep connection to the region’s natural beauty from an early age. Childhood days spent exploring the mountains sparked a lifelong passion for the Cape’s unique flora and the art of landscape design.

Influenced by a father with a love for plants, Jeremy pursued horticulture with dedication, building a reputation for excellence through his work with Natures Blueprint. His projects — including contributions to the prestigious Lanzerac Manor Hotel — and features in publications such as the Cape Times and Argus have established him as a respected name in the industry.

Jeremy believes that gardens are living, evolving spaces that require thoughtful design and ongoing care. Through Nature’s Blueprint, he offers a full spectrum of services — from concept and design to construction and long-term maintenance — ensuring each garden is both beautiful and enduring.

With a personal appreciation for the Cape’s ecological systems, including the natural role of fire in fynbos regeneration, Jeremy brings both expertise and authenticity to every project. His work is driven by a commitment to creating outdoor spaces that reflect the spirit, resilience, and beauty of the region.

Team Spotlight

Wincent Kossam — Maintenance Manager

Wincent Kossam

Maintenance Manager

Wincent joined the company and started as a gardener. He worked his way to a foreman of a maintenance team. He was a natural choice for staff development when a driver position opened in the Landscaping company. He unfortunately suffered a medical issue which meant he needed to return home for an extended time to receive care. He returned and took up his current position as a maintenance manager. Wincent has improved himself and is an example to everyone in the company.

“Working with nbp+ has been a fantastic experience, they're always willing to share knowledge and innovative ideas which have helped me grow professionally”
