A place to sit and feel good

This garden rede­sign focussed on the seating area. The curved shape of the gravelled area with the surroun­ding lush plan­ting creates an idyllic and romantic picture. The modern water basin and the linear paving slabs in the lawn tie in with the modern and simple terrace and the buil­ding. A skilful combi­na­tion of bench and water feature was created around the water basin, as the pump shaft was inte­grated into the seating area.

In contrast to the lush plan­ting, the three tall trees around the seating area stand like pillars. Their accu­rate sphe­rical crowns are very archi­tec­tural and striking and struc­ture the plan­ting. It was also important for the client to conceal the domi­nant neigh­bou­ring house and draw the eye to some­thing much more attrac­tive. The newly desi­gned seating area is attrac­tive and creates space for socia­li­sing outdoors with a gentle ripple in your ear.
