East Greenwich, London
Contemporary Garden, London
This family garden in Greenwich combines contemporary design with child-friendly use of space, provide eating, cooking, entertaining, relaxing and play spaces all in a 12x7m space. The lush green planting pops against the dark painted fencing. An outdoor kitchen includes barbeque, hob and prep space with a bar table, so that the chef can have company while he cooks. A sunken trampoline is hidden behind the built-in lounge seating, making use of the changes in level on the site to screen the play equipment. A painted wood pergola enfolds the dining area with more greenery, and a Himalayan birch grows through the louvred roof, screening the property behind, its bark providing a wonderful contrast with the colour of the woodwork.
