This garden was designed to complement a recently completed barn conversion that beautifully blended old and new elements. The garden needed to reflect this harmonious mix of styles.
A striking 200-year-old brick wall ran the length of the garden, influencing the design. To match its colour and character, we used reclaimed brick for the path and walling, while contrasting it with the clean lines of a porcelain patio and cedar-clad fencing.
To make the most of the small courtyard space, we introduced a curved path—curves always create a sense of openness. The steps along the patio added to the feeling of space.
The borders burst with colour, featuring a multi-stem tree as the focal point, a gently cascading water feature in front of the garden office, and a mature olive tree craned into place on the patio. The result: a peaceful, enchanting oasis, enclosed from the outside world.
