Project

To create a front and rear garden that compliments and enhances the strong symmetry of the client’s contemporary new build house.

The rear garden was to be divided into 2 distinct sections with a transition area dividing them.

Key was the site line from the large living room window out to the rear of the garden.

 

Key features
  • Large Limestone paved terrace for dining, entertaining and relaxing

  • Contemporary fish pond and large format stepping stone path

  • Modern cedar slatted fencing with pleached trees for screening

  • Feather edge fence with wooden posts in the rear section of the garden

  • Bespoke curved seating area surrounded by relaxed planting

  • Curved clay paver paths that lead you through the rear section of the garden

  • Large driveway laid to clay pavers

  • Lighting throughout the rear garden
