This rustic board and batten home is tucked into a valley in a leafy Auckland suburb within walking distance to the sea. The split level house sat awkwardly on the site and was surrounded by an assorted collection of shrubs. There was also a problematic area directly under the boardwalk entry to the house. On the plus side, mature hedging gave good privacy from the road and neighbouring houses. The owners wished for a simpler, less cluttered feeling garden in which there house would sit comfortably. Romantic cottage style plantings were desired, with pollinator plants as a feature, as well as a formal rose garden, multiple options for seating and a large vegetable garden and utility area. As the site had some changes in level, most of the new layout was created using retaining walls. This also allowed for the addition of new soil to improve the existing coastal soil. As the property is in a natural valley, the garden is sheltered from coastal winds. The awkward area under the entry boardwalk was transformed into a romantic sheltered seating area for two. The boundary hedges and several mature trees were kept and new plantings were designed to link everything together. Where possible, low maintenance plants were selected and low hedging also provides structure. The owners have now completed stage one of the project - the entry and driveway areas - and will begin work on stage two - vegetable and rose gardens - next autumn. Dee McQuillan

This oak orangery with tiled mansard roof is the latest design from one of David Salisbury’s most creative sales designers, that has elicited a very positive review and testimonial. The quality of his design work is one of Dan Featherstone’s many strengths and this orangery, with its elegant proportions and symmetrical design, is another good example. As our customer noted: “Dan was a highly creative and skilled designer and created a concept that was complementary to our home and we just knew it was the right thing for us.” The new orangery has transformed the rear of this period red brick property in East Yorkshire, creating a far more effective link with the garden with its large expanse of lawn. A pair of French Doors provide quick and convenient access to the outside. The overhead roof lantern helps bring in natural overhead light, perfect for reading the newspapers or a favourite book on the customer’s comfortable looking contemporary grey sofas. The additional space created means there’s room for recreation, as well as relaxation, with table football a popular family game. Our customer really helps tell the story of this project: “We moved into our dream home and we felt it lacked just something extra special so we decided some type of orangery would finish off our home. We spent many hours reviewing the market available and decided to contact David Salisbury to discuss the option of a new oak orangery. We had already spoken with many other companies but we soon realised that their attention to detail set them apart from the competition.” Whilst the initial design is obviously vital, the manufacturing and installation phases of this oak orangery (like any building project) were just as important. “The installation process went extremely smoothly and we had regular communication from the David Salisbury project management team throughout - they answered all questions immediately,” the customer noted. Regular communication is important in managing a customer’s expectation so it is always gratifying to read of feedback like this. This is the latest successful oak orangery in what is now a significant area of growth for David Salisbury. It feels only right to leave the last word to our customer: “The finished product is even better than we could have imagined and really has made a fantastic space that is enjoyed by the whole family. If you are considering an orangery extension for your home, we would happily recommend David Salisbury without hesitation.”
