Projects
Modern Suffolk Cottage Garden
This charming cottage located in the Suffolk countryside was renovated to create a beautiful blend of modernity with a hint of tradition and we were tasked to create a similar blend with the garden. Our first task was to link the house with the garden, to create a strong flow inside out. The garden is surrounded by lovely countryside and it was important to create a design that balanced with the surrounding landscape but was not over powered by it.
Penguin Garden
Small, outdoor room designed as an entertaining space that provided an extension to the home. The penguins were at the heart of the design brief and therefore at the centre of the garden. They gaze down at the reflection pool with the 'Ice Flow' stones drifting through.
