A bright orange wall bounces off the deep browns of the seating and the cedar horizontal trellis. This small London garden was originally designed by the Architect who designed the house, and adjusted by The Garden Builders in-line with the client's wants. It is a low-maintenance, contemporary, child-friendly and colourful space. The main surface is a synthetic lawn, surrounded by raised beds that are fully planted. A slab of slate acts as a bridge over the sunken dry river-effect bed, which leads onto a slate terrace and hardwood tree-seat. Colour and cedar horizontal trellis add a contemporary edge to this well-balanced garden.
