APL

Front and back garden design and build. Fully landscaped spaces with multiples sun terraces, planting, yard, driveway, wall and shed.

Design brief: achieve a sunny aspect with options for shade. This was to be a 'no lawn' landscaping planting scheme as the garden needed to entice wildlife into it with planting for insects, more hiding places for birds and water. Colours were to be purple-pink, green-grey and white.

Hard landscaping: The back garden landscaping featured a pergola with sun shade. The second patio is the full sun terrace in which sits 2 sun loungers. The final raised patio by the house fits an 8-seat dining table and BBQ. The raised bed is flexible for landscaping planting e.g. veggies or shrubs and perennials. Multiple shingle pathways for access were also installed alongside a dried riverbed water with reflection pool. The front garden landscaping featured a new driveway, walls, lighting, planted borders and a step to the front door.
