This garden was designed to be a peaceful retreat with herbs, fragrant plants and a restrained palette of silvers, blues and purples.
The materials are natural yet sophisticated: smooth planed oak sleepers and warm sandstone, and will gain character as they age.
A selection of different evergreens with strong forms will provide structure to contrast with the wispy screen of Calamagrostis grass.

The site itself suffered from poor soil and shade so the raised beds will give the plants a better chance to thrive, as well as offering a place to perch with a drink.
Small squared trellis on the fences will not only support the climbing plants, and mask the fence but also add another layer of texture to the garden with its almost woven appearance. It will be painted in soft grey, as will the new bike store.
