Urban chic town garden
Modern Garden, Kent
Greencube's garden in Kings Hill transformed a blank canvas new build garden into a sleek and special place, balancing tropical plants and flowering perennials with a repeat of ipe hardwood, black basalt and rendered walls in 3 colours. Hints of orange and purple are injected into the planting scheme contrasting with leafy lush banana, erybotrya and yucca to create form and structure."
We're really proud of this town garden. The clean, simple lines and a limited palette of colour and texture in the landscaping give clarity to the space. We've painted the walls white and the fence black to enhance the lush green foliage and flowering Geum and Geranium giving colour and seasonal interest. Clever use of raised planters help to create a cosy outdoor social space, with low maintenance, high impact planting softening the surroundings. We have used LED strip lights to create a wash of colour on the bespoke seating and a feature on the steps that lead to the gate. We have placed spike lights in the borders to uplight the specimen banana, loquat and bamboo.
