A small and awkwardly shaped new build garden is transformed with angular raised beds for easy maintenance, a cantilevered oak bench, slate water feature, planting through gravel, natural stone patio and raised seating area with gazebo and stone steps.
New Build Garden
A trio of large ironstone pots in different shapes and sizes add interest close to the house, Planted with seasonal bulbs such as tulips in spring, and evergreens such as eucalyptus that tones in beautifully with the painted gazebo.

Natural stone laid in a random pattern forms a generous seating area, then it breaks up to form a loosely planted gravel area to soften the hard edges of the garden. A cantilevered oak bench alongside a compact slate water feature forms the central focal point from the living room windows.

The rear garden has been transformed, creating a spacious terrace, paving blending out into gravel, a large raised bed so the planting is easier to maintain, filled with grasses, evergreen shrubs, small trees and roses. A gazebo offers respite from sun or rain, and enjoys a different view across...
