Garden 1:

This project was a small family garden on a considerable slope.

The clients wanted to utilize all of the available space and incorporate a seating area and children’s play area.

By terracing the garden we were able to create 3 separate areas.



Decking was installed nearest the house with a pergola to provide shade, a small lawn and raised bed were created using sleepers of different heights to add interest and finally the lower area has been laid to bark chippings to provide a safe environment for the play area.

A cascading pebble pool was included to bring atmosphere without causing risk to the children.

Garden 2:

This client wished to extend his existing garden by adding a Japanese style combination of gravel and water. We created a secluded area using trellis screening and railway sleepers and included a small pond suitable for fish, with seating and sympathetic planting.

Garden 3:

This was a garden designed from scratch for a newly built house. The client requested an easy to maintain garden with a large seating area and space for a summerhouse. We created the seating area adjacent to the house to be accessed from the French windows using York Buff patio slabs with a curved edge to add interest.

A large lawn was laid with stepping-stones leading to the summerhouse. We planted the borders with shrubs and perennials and incorporated a small rose garden, we also mulched them with bark chippings to suppress weed growth.
