Garden Design Project Cheltenham
Every aspect of the design had to be stylish yet practical with as many `rooms` as possible so that they could linger in each as the mood or time of day took them. We take you through aspects of the project we designed and built to achieve the clients vision for their new home.
An evening oasis in which to sit with friends at the end of the day. Almost an outside room.
This circular paving area set within an otherwise rectangular space lends itself to being a really comforting area surrounded with structural planting that will always be in your peripheral vision.
The strong presence of red brick in the boundary walling has been brought in to the paving surfaces and also lends it`s self to accentuate the circular motion of the terrace.
The seating area has been carefully positioned so that the sun bathes this area at about the time of evening that this area will be used.
The BBQ, never an attractive addition to a calm seating area is annexed by keeping it outside the main seating area.
Steps with a central water feature rill split the steps to maintain the line leading to the main upper garden.
The pleached Hornbeam screen further emphasise the compartment that is the upper garden with their winter rustling adding to their dimension.
Striking large architectural pots and seating provide focal points and local interest at key positions.
The planting style is largely textural but with the emphasis of movement from the tall grasses but bringing the planting to lower level either side of the steps so as not to over shadow the lower areas.
The planting scheme simply uses mauve, pale blues and almost the only other colour other than white, being pale citrus yellows, always a fantastic combination with the pale blues.
The strong linear lines of the existing windows lend themselves to replicate this some form in this space so the firepit ensemble was chosen to do this.
The rattan seating also emphasises the linear contemporary feel and the cushions were carefully chosen to pick up the colour of the striking mauve Salvia nemerosa however they go well with the steel grey of the predominant stone colours.
This is a peaceful yet highly practical area to sit and watch the warm flames flickering in the twilight and beyond.
