This design imaginatively shapes space to create a sense of discovery; through a garden made for outdoor living.
Bold, curving hornbeam hedging runs throughout the site, creating seclusion and privacy for the main social and seating areas, which are concealed and revealed as you move along sweeping pathways.
This design creates a beautiful, relaxed landscape that encourages time outdoors, discovering the life-enhancing experiences this garden has to offer.

A central feature of this relaxed country landscape is an inviting natural swimming pond, designed in a simple composition, nestled within a wildflower meadow.
An adjacent timber deck provides space for generous seating and loungers to make the most of the swimming pond and views back across the garden.
A nearby circular seating area provides a perfect spot to relax in the evening by an open fire bowl.
Distinct but related seating areas provide social spaces next to the modern house extension, with an outdoor kitchen nearby.
The feel of these spaces is loose and relaxed. Generous, naturalistic planting surrounds seating areas and softens the house extension, while offering year-round and changing seasonal interest.
A simple water bowl adds an additional natural element.
Bold, curved hornbeam hedging provides spatial definition, creating a sense of discovery / reveal as you transition through the garden.
The sinuous form of the hedging is mirrored in the curved gravel pathways that flow through the site.
While a sweeping mown grass path lined with multi-stem birch trees offers a walk through the wildflower meadow to and from the natural swimming pond.
