Arts & Crafts Walled Garden

SHOREHAM | KENT

A semi-rural traditional English country walled garden inspired by the Arts & Crafts movement. A conceptual design for keen gardeners to potter, read, relax and enjoy the vistas throughout the day from several peaceful seating areas, in either sun or shade.


Informal Suburban Garden

BECKENHAM | KENT

Regeneration to a small garden of a 1980s terraced house with limited access and limited budget. Sensitively transformed by planting design and refreshed landscaping elements, the layout has a strong asymmetrical geometry based on a series of intersecting circles to create curves that are repeated throughout the space, providing informality and the illusion of widening this narrow plot.


Secluded Urban Garden

GREENWICH | LONDON

Contemporary, non-conformist, unique. A small, stylish modern garden for entertaining, privacy and escapism. The conceptual design reflects the modern eco-credentials of the building without being overly minimalist. The layout provides a journey and destination, atmosphere and interest, resulting in an intimate experience.


Minimalist Urban Garden

HONOR OAK | LONDON

A simplistic, contemporary, low-maintenance outdoor room for socialising and retreating from busy urban living. This design concept is inspired by the clients’ interest in modernism, including the Bauhaus movement and the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. Designed to be a continuation of the highly-specified interior of their home – a sensitively renovated yellow-brick semi-detached Victorian house in South London – focusing on finish, attention-to-detail and equally highly-specified materials.


Suburban Front Garden

BECKENHAM | KENT

A complete re-design of this extremely small space following major service infrastructure works and improvements to the façade. The project included designing bespoke items including; an oak porch canopy; sandstone steps and sandstone setts for edging – configured to alleviate the impact of the diagonally gradated plot and provide consistent levels. Attention-to-detail and quality of finish is the crucial focus for this modest 7m² area, with seasonal colour provided by herbaceous plants and bulbs interspersed between the structural planting in the remaining limited space.


Cottage Front Garden

CAPEL MANOR GARDENS | ENFIELD

A design concept for a double-fronted cottage in ‘Sunflower Street’ – one of several permanent show gardens set within 30-acre landscaped public gardens. The design combines both traditional and modern material solutions in response to front garden planning legislation, in particular, natural rainwater management and the environmental impact caused by excessive paving in front gardens.
