Sun terrace and garden re-shaping - Longparish,
Hampshire
The Brief: To create a pretty and intimate patio
space to the rear of a picturesque cottage with a very small but
steeply banked garden belonging to a keen gardener.
A terrace was cut out of the bank of lawn and held
with a retaining wall which incorporated several shaped built-in
planters. This meant that the huge collection of tubs and urns
cluttering the area could be reduced. The theme of sweeping curves
softened the edges of the brickwork and allowed for the plants
to flow in the small space creating a more natural look. The paving
was natural stone with a pink accent to complement the brickwork,
adding to the romantic effect of the area.
