The brief for this private front garden was to create a calm, restful space which could be enjoyed quietly, individually by our clients, rather than it functioning purely as access to their property.
The design avoids any delineation of the main route through the space; cool grey granite planked paving breaks the direct line of flow and Kebony decking laid horizontally opens up the full width of the garden.
The focal points of the swing seat, water feature and tree fern, positioned away from the pathway, draw you into the garden and the sound of cascading water provides an additional sensory lure and calming soundtrack. This is very much a space in which to take a moment and de-stress.
