The new lawn makes the garden seem bigger and deeper. It's a shallow garden with a point to the left, now concealed by trees and the swing seat. New planting contrasts purples, greys and greens.

Having completed their new build in a semi-rural subdivision, these clients turned their attention to the garden, painting the fence black, building a generous deck and then becoming stuck for inspiration! On their wishlist were multiple options for seating, an area for a fire- bowl or chiminea, as much lawn as possible, lots of fruit trees and bee-friendly plantings, an area for a garden shed, beehive and vegetable garden, an attractive side yard and increased privacy. A new timber fence was erected at the end of the driveway, with an upcycled wrought iron gate providing access and a tantalising glimpse of the garden beyond. A pebbled area just beyond the gate leads to the deck and as oversize paving stones created from re-cycled bricks can also be used for informal seating or a place for a chiminea or fire bowl. Pleached olives provide screening and backdrop to the garden and the space under them is underplanted to create depth. The garden wraps right around the deck with an informal single herringbone 'gardener's path' of recycled brick allowing easy access for maintenance. The lawn is angled to create a narrowing perspective providing the illusion that it is much longer than it really is. The hedging has been designed to partially obstruct the lawn borders at the narrowest point to enhance this illusion. Near the deck end, the lawn takes a circular shape, edged by recycled bricks to define another area for seating. A pebbled utility area creates space for the garden shed, vegetable boxes and beehive, and paving provides easy dry access from the back door, to the clothesline and utility area. The fence at the rear of the house was painted in Resene Woodsman "Equilibrium" to create a sense of space, particularly important as the bedroom windows look directly onto this fence. Planting throughout the garden made use of low maintenance perennials that are pollinator friendly, with lots of silver and grey foliage and a pink, blue and mauve colour palette. The front lawn was completely planted out with fruit trees and a perennial border of pollinator plants to create street appeal and make the most of every inch of space!

Le contraste de la calade et de l'enduit de chaux sur la maçonnerie paysagère avec le caillebotis (rigide) en arrière plan crée dans ce jardin assez basique au départ, il faut bien l'avouer........une atmosphère nouvelle il s'agit peut être même de l'âme du jardin....

The rear garden at House CN by SASI Studio creates a calm connection between the renovated East London terraced house and its outdoor living space. Open French doors lead from the kitchen and dining area onto a timber-decked courtyard garden, framed by brick walls, soft architectural lighting and mature planting.

A brilliant design & build for this Small Garden in the heart of Clapham which encompasses a contemporary feel; with a wash of vibrant colours that help distract from the monotony and grey of London.
As this was a terraced house in Clapham, all materials and staff had to go through the house which made things a little trinket; however the clients were very pleased with the whole process and we are delighted that we managed to pull off such a fantastic job whilst maintaining some peace and quiet within the house.
Starting with the fencing; the fencing is a slatted timber which has been painted grey to add to the neutral was of colour from the paving and bespoke furniture for this small garden design. The paving is a Mandarin stone Kast White porcelain which will be handy in the summer, helping to reflect the heat to prevent the space becoming too hot with its built in BBQ and appliances. The white also compliments the fencing and the furniture provided. The BBQ and the bike storage unit that have been fitted are created from aluminium and are both bespoke to the clients wants and needs. The BBQ and wall coping countertop in this garden landscape are Dekton Aeris.

Significant work was involved to upgrade and modernise the house but within a reasonable budget. The garden has a small footprint both in the front and rear, and there were many practical considerations to tackle like the use of space, navigation and privacy.
I especially love the new paving and stepwork for the front garden, as the stone used is one of my favourites in terms of material and colour, and the garden looks amazing at night.
There are little nuances like a boulder placed as a seating area with an existing garden ornament that is sentimental to the clients (mummy koala holding its baby) that add an emotional element to the space.
I love the tessellated tiles used for their front porch, replacing what was just a red painted concrete floor. It’s modern but adds that element of sophistication to the space and suits the house style and area.
The rear garden had to have storage, and we needed to ensure that the client’s car was able to be parked but should not detract from the newly landscaped space.
There is a granny flat in their rear garden that gets rented out, so I had to think about how to create privacy for both parties (the tenant and my clients)!
The choice of plants was a little different as I’d mixed in succulents with exotics that give some seasonality impacts over the year. I really love the new fascia of the conservatory and the new built-in external cupboards and workbench!
