This was a small and awkward triangle shaped garden measuring just 6 metres at the widest point. The client wanted to create a small 'paradise' garden filled with plants for her to potter with and had to include two seperate seating areas for two sets of furniture.
Geometry played a key role in taking the focus away from the triangular shape while enabling two seating areas to be created succesfully in such a small space.
A pergola adds height and seclusion to the smaller breakfast area and allows rambling climbers to create that cottage feel. The water feature is positoned between the two patios and is visible from both. The curved paths create sweeping borders filled with luxuriant planting and make the garden feel substantially bigger than before.
This garden illustrates why a garden with no lawn is no less of a garden.
I must congratulate you on the design of my garden which I am so pleased about and which has been admired by so many. I never notice that it is a triangle now, words which I thought I would never be writing.
