Project Brief
A garden that fits the Arts and Crafts
style of the house.
To recapture the magic of the old garden, lost after several
trees died.
To develop the shape of the garden, reducing
the tunnel effect.
Two seating areas, one near the house,
and one in the middle of the garden.
Frame views of the
garden from the house, and of the house from the centre
of garden.
Interpretation
The design uses a meandering shape
down the length of the garden as a good way of connecting
each space and giving cohesion.
By retaining as much existing
planting as possible the Magic of the garden is recaptured.
Accents and focal points create views and enhance the new
shape.
Simple materials and construction details maintain
an Arts and Crafts tradition.
A garden that intrigues and
surprises.
