Brief - We had a virtually free reign on designing this garden as long as kept within a specified budget. The only wishes were for the fence panel to be changed for walling and a new framed, ledged and braced gate installed. |

Design and Installation - An octaganol theme was soon chosen. Stonemarket octagonal paving created the two patios and step. A raised octagonal lawn became the central feature. The idea of it being raised was to help deter people walking across the lawn. Raised beds were created and planted with topiary box, carefully selected perennials and architectural grasses. Criggon green decorative aggregrate was laid around the central lawn to create the pathways. A pergola/trellis was erected to help screen off overlooking properties. A tunnel effect was also achieved as you entered the garden with the trellis panels helping to screen off the garden from immediate view. Wisteria was planted on the pergola. Sculptures and container plants helped the client to put their individual stamp on the garden. |
