The Design:
A bespoke seating area was designed, incorporating lighting, planting and a white render/timber finish. A similarly finished BBQ area was designed to complement the seating. Straight lines and symmetry are key to this design with a central, slate path dividing the lawn and lined with stylish contemporary containers. At the side of each lawn is a raised bed finished with sleepers, complemented by seating made from sleepers at the BBQ area. Two existing palm trees, underlit, are the focal point of this design, placed either side of the BBQ. Planting is low maintenance and includes structural planting such as bamboos, phormium, agave and the palm tree. Colour is added through herbaceous such as cynara cardunculus, alliums and primula vialii. Lighting and garden speakers are included in the design meaning the garden can be used into the evening, perfect for entertaining.
