An uplit cropped stone feature wall creates a visual focus and links the garden back to the contemporary extension, echoing the external stone-clad basement wall. The wall sits within a soft green enclosed garden with defined areas to relax and play.
Evergreen hedging provides an instant and consistent green backdrop for the garden. Stone paving edged with stone setts creates a terrace area for seating and dining. Cedar slatted screens are used to create garden storage, vehicle gate and pedestrian gate and screening.
Planting is soft, textural and layered with flowers amongst fluffy grasses in a colour palette to compliment the stone. Two new trees create privacy by filling gaps in the existing boundary, and are uplit at night.
