Townhouse Garden

Published January 22, 2012

Here is a gallery of a town house garden which we completed recently

Aerial view – before. It’s day 3 and rubble and older shrubs have been removed. The new garden is starting to emerge

Aerial view – after. This view from an upstairs window shows the overall layout – a mix of stone, wood and planting.

Ornamental urns and a hardwood path lead the eye into a garden of formal planting, flower beds, brick, stone and water

A hardwood iroko path bridges patio and garden. Spotlights are recessed into the path.

A classic bay laurel stands at the centre of each formal bed, enclosed by box hedges. The bed is laid with bark chips for easy maintenance

View towards patio made from hard-wearing Italian limestone.

View towards back of garden. A gazebo and open wrought iron gate are used to create an illusion of space and depth beyond the garden

Close-up of water feature which is illuminated at night time.

Lighting is used throughout the garden to create a garden which can be used by night as well as day. Here, we can see a spotlight on formal bed as well as recessed lights on the hardwood path.
