Project Information
A considered transformation of a compact London garden, creating three interconnected outdoor rooms designed for relaxing, cooking and entertaining.
An elevated ash deck and two mirrored lower patios bring structure to the space, complemented by natural Yorkstone, bespoke architectural features and layered planting.
The result is a cohesive, contemporary landscape that makes thoughtful use of the available space while introducing privacy, character and a sense of retreat.
