Urban Oasis Landscape DesignA Trex deck was on the top of their list for the backyard with a decorative screen on the sides of the pergola for privacy. Asymmetrical steps up to the deck add a little playfulness to the deck which despite its generous size, doesn’t overwhelm the small yard. A constrained color palette of black, white and gray in the hardscape give the landscape a crisp and sophisticated appearance but the colorful drought-tolerant plant palette softens the look

Christine Wilkie Garden DesignThe owner of this small, triangular-shaped garden in Chiswick, west London, wanted a modern outdoor room that would link seamlessly from a newly-built contemporary orangery. Water, lighting and low-maintenance planting were also required, as was the need to integrate an existing summerhouse that dominated the space. Existing fencing was to be disguised to blend in with the overall style.
The garden measured 11m x 6m, narrowing to just 4m at the rear corner. As no lawn was required, this was completely removed in favour of a smooth sandstone paving that was used to create the sense of a larger space and complement the interior flooring. A main focal point in the garden was a slate-clad water wall. Lighting was used to extend the garden’s use into the evening, while painted trellis panels and climbing plants were used to disguise the existing utility fence panels.
