DESIGN · PLANTING · PROJECT MANAGEMENT
The owners of this RIBA award-winning, minimalist modern classic wanted a low maintenance margin of planting to soften and colour the boundaries. All the borders can be seen from the first floor where the main living areas are located. There is a backbone of ‘garden worthy’ shrubs and trees giving texture, flowers, autumn leaves and coloured stems throughout the year. Threaded among and in front of them are flowering perennials for intermittent swathes of colour and points of seasonal interest.
