Garden
for relaxing & socialising, Balham
(£££)
This small garden
is attached to a mid terrace house in south London. The owners wanted a
space that they could use for relaxing, dining and
entertaining throughout the day and into the night. The client also
required a new outdoor office for home working.
The design is
focussed around a central seating area which also incorporates space
for food preparation and a pizza oven. Underseat storage
is included and the design is completed by subtle
uplighting of specimen plants.
The beds
are planted with a limited palette of low maintenance plants to create
a Mediterranean style scheme. Lavender was an absolute must for it's
wonderful scent as well as a range of herbs used in the
cooking.
