From this mornings harvest and boy is it a good one!

First time I’ve ever been able to successfully harvest a cucumber 🥒

I have no idea what I have done differently but I am taking it! Hopefully there’s more to come!

Postcards of the hard landscaping details from a recent site visit to a garden designed by The Landscape Service and constructed by Wycliffe Landscapes 👷‍♂️

The hard landscaping is due to be completing in the coming weeks which is extremely exciting with all the paving supplied by Forest Stone

There definitely is more to come from this garden 🪴

Been a while since I have shared a post that showcases the whole garden.

In this visual you can see how we have knitted the different spaces together with interlocking shapes. This helps create better links and flow throughout the garden.

By introducing planting into the heart of the garden helps soften the landscape as well as adding interest and texture to the hard landscaping areas. It also helps invite wildlife in and around the seating areas.

The trees throughout have been designed in a way to partially block parts of the garden to increase the intrigue levels as well as provide dappled shade when the sunlight hits.

By having a change in materials when you transition or enter a new space states to the user that they have reached a different area within the garden.

Progress is being made on site following the freezing temperatures last week which included some snow!

The Prunus lusitanica hedging, Prunus ludidum pleached trees and Euonymus japonicus clipped hedging will help screen the neighbouring fence lines as well as providing interest.

There is lots more to do here with more planting to go in next month!

A new Nordic styled garden that I designed with thelandscapeservice before the Christmas break!

This space uses well-connected geometric shapes, providing a number of entertaining and relaxing spaces. The garden will use a small palette of well constructed natural materials, creating a minimalist Scandinavian effect.

Planting will reflect a rustic feel to soften the hard landscaping and be left to naturally change through the seasons.

The first post of 2023!

This is a progress 3D model of a Scandinavian themed garden in Dorset. We met with our clients before Christmas to talk them through our initial ideas an the direction that the design is going in and they loved it!

I am looking forward to developing this design and visuals further. This garden is to feature an outdoor kitchen, firepit and a log burning hot tub!
