The focus of the garden is the floral snug with raised planting and low-level seating, creating an enveloped, immersive environment for relaxation, contemplation and re-connection. The structural shapes of Buxus sempervirens and Stipa gigantea, and the clean lines of the design, instil a sense of calm.
The addition of the multi-purpose louvered pergola, combined with the adaptable planting that is suitable for both sun and shade, provides plenty of take-home inspiration.
The garden fulfils a desire to create a lush and peaceful environment, forming a space to relax, recharge and reconnect with each other and nature.
Key plants: Agapanthus, Buxus sempervirens (box, as topiary), Soleirolia soleirolii (mind-your-own-business), Betula pendula (birch)
