The new owners of this property redesigned their garden to make the most of the awkward shape and create plenty of space for their plants. It was considerably smaller than their old garden, so every inch of space counted. This design created the illusion that this space was bigger than it actually is.
It is divided into separate ‘rooms’ using larch frames, that will be draped with climbing roses. A swing can be attached to the frame for grandchildren to play. The owners can sit or potter in the different spaces at different times of the day.
We wrapped a contemporary pool with irises and water lilies around the new patio. A zigzag bridge lead across a contemporary pool to a wisteria clad bower, giviing the whole family a sense of adventure.
Although the shape had seemed tricky at first, it actually made the final layout more interesting.
