A prefabricated concrete fire pit surrounded by built-in bench style seating and pottery with citrus on an ipe wood deck. Low water-use succulents neighbor the deck , planted in the decorative pebble. The shade sail was added at a later time due to the sun reflecting off the windows and burning the artificial grass.

Jardin méditerranéen contemporain | 4000m²

Ce jardin méditerranéen d’environ 4000 m² intègre divers types d’espaces et d’ambiances. La mise en scène de l’entrée de la maison repose sur des éléments paysagers typiquement provençaux, avec en particulier la création d’un mini-champ de lavandes et d’une mini-oliveraie, ainsi que la plantation d’un beau figuier. Le projet visait également à donner vie à l’espace piscine et terrasse existant. D’une part, j’ai imaginé un cheminement original le long de la piscine, composé de pas japonais en piquets de schiste, de longueurs variables, qui créent une transition particulièrement graphique avec la vaste pelouse qui sert de terrain de jeu à toute la famille. D’autre part, de l’autre côté de l’espace piscine et terrasse, j’ai conçu des massifs évoquant une ambiance exotique à partir de végétaux de climat méditerranéen. Pour ces massifs, j’ai utilisé une palette végétale assez restreinte, incluant de nombreuses graminées, et positionné chaque plante de façon visuellement aléatoire et répétitive, afin de créer un effet naturaliste. J’ai par ailleurs privilégié des plantes au feuillage persistant, d’une couleur allant du gris-bleu (agave et yucca rostrata) au vert foncé (palmier de Chine et phormium), et des plantes offrant des floraisons jaunes-oranges au printemps (par exemple kniphofia) mais des couleurs plus douces en été (par exemple agapanthe). Enfin, un potager en carrés, surélevés grâce à des structures en osier tressé, permet aux jeunes enfants de cultiver des légumes et fruits de saison à leur propre hauteur. L’œil du paysagiste concepteur : En ce qui concerne la vaste pelouse à laquelle la maison donne un accès direct, j’ai suggéré la répartition suivante : – sur un tiers de la surface, du gazon en rouleaux a été plaqué pour un effet et un usage quasiment immédiats ; – sur les deux autres tiers de la surface, du gazon rustique a été semé, ce qui donne un résultat plus lent (environ une année) mais constitue une solution plus économique. Cette partie semée peut alors être traitée de deux façons différentes, en fonction des souhaits des clients. Un entretien régulier (pour ce projet, réalisé par un robot-tondeuse) associé à un arrosage adapté donnent une pelouse dense et bien verte. Il est également possible de se passer d’arrosage et de ne prévoir qu’un fauchage deux à trois fois dans l’année, pour un effet plus naturel du type « prairie fleurie ».

This small back garden had more than its share of issues to address. From the narrow angled site, to the slope of the ground, lack of privacy, public drains, aging existing retaining walls and deck, underground electrical wiring, and difficult access, it really had it all! The clients wanted a leafy secluded spot, where they could relax, entertain and feel immersed in nature. They also wanted a small productive area for some herbs and fruit trees. A garden shed was required and a means of access through from the front garden, although privacy was to be important. The old deck was removed and replaced with beautiful vitex decking. This new deck connect the rooms of the house and wraps itself around the house, effectively managing the worst of the slope and creating clear symmetry within the angled boundaries. A central retained bed with a feature flowering cherry tree creates a generous boardwalk and makes the decking feel part of the garden. A privacy screen and considered planting increases privacy. A series of oversize platform stairs lead up to the highest part of the garden, which is filled with raised beds for vegetable and herbs and fruit trees. Generous natural schist stepping stones connect the utility area of the garden to the decked area and meander through the vege garden. The planting is designed to be leafy and green with soft white accents through the season. Beautiful feature trees include Prunus Shimidsu Sakura, Cercis Canadensis and Betula jacquemonti. Summer flowering perennials include gaura, verbena bonariensis, alchemilla mollis, anenome japonica and hydrangea. Photos by Dee McQuillan
