The winter garden needs bold plantings of long lasting flowers to be noticed and make a worthwhile impact. The purple Hellebores [Warburtons Rosemary] paired with the Helleborus niger make a lovely winter show edging a big border of summer flowering shrub roses. I can usually expect about 10 weeks of flowering starting early January before the colours start to deteriorate. Adam Hodge

A tranquil garden design teeming with herbs and medicinal plants. Visitors are encouraged to use the continuous path as an aid to walking meditation. Along the path one can appreciate the filigree forms of umbellifers and gossamer fennel leaves. Awareness of subtleties such as plant movement in a breeze and backlit petals is heightened. The layout of the garden is denominated by the path’s route which loops and circles to contain a circular water trough and round of thyme. This curved path is intersected at various points by a serpentine rill. Senses are heightened via the calming sound of flowing water, cushioned feel of camomile atop the seat and the uplifting fragrance of mint varieties.

AGA was commissioned to reconfigure the internal lay-out of this imposing flat, forming part of an earlier conversion of a late-19th-century house in Belsize Park. The principal change has been to completely refocus the living area to the rear of the house, optimising available space by bringing a former conservatory back into the main envelope. Now reconfigured as a dining area, this flows logically as an extension to the newly defined living area which now features an open-plan kitchen at one end. In this way, kitchen, dining and living spaces form one flexible, coherent volume. The flat now accommodates two double bedrooms, a centrally located bathroom, plus a secondary WC and shower room. AGA’s rational approach has optimised available space, while the carefully chosen palette of materials has created a coherent, luminous sequence of spaces which respond perfectly to the requirements of 21st-century urban living.
