This garden was designed for all the family to socialise and relax in. It is the last section of a longer garden and we wanted to create a real surprise and 'wow' moment as you came through the screening hedge. We designed a large, curved bench with a corten steel base and a mitred Oak top. This curved around a steel fire bowl to create the social hub. Amongst the planting there is a hammock suspended from reclaimed timber posts. The planting has a relaxed costal feel to make you feel far from London.
