The Natural GardenThe way one chooses to maintain one's garden is an important element of design. One option is to leave intact last year's growth on warm-season grasses for their sculptural quality. We love how the native Meadow Petunia fills in all the gaps, while the Black Eyed Susans provide bright and bold contrast to the mix.
We call these gardens "living landscapes" because the native plants they contain seed off and change locations from year to year in a dynamic, dramatic show. The gardener becomes audience, director, and dramaturge--all in one--rather than one who tightly controls the results.
(What is a dramaturge, one might ask if their friends are not in the theater?) Oxford languages explains: "1. a dramatist.
2. a literary editor on the staff of a theater who consults with authors and edits texts."
In living landscapes, the native plants become a sort of text which the gardener edits in order to shape the unfolding drama for the current and next season. The gardener chooses where to pull back overly assertive plants, when to nudge forward the under-confident actor waiting to shine, when to let the mystery unfold and surprise. It is not laissez-faire or "what will be will be"--rather, it is an ongoing movement rooted in observation and reflection. This is the living landscape we strive to design and build at The Natural Garden.

Plank HardwareAll-black-everything has long been considered chic in fashion, so why not in interiors? Strip back you kitchen colour palette and simplify your styling choices with a trending black kitchen.
Materials take precedence in this scheme. Set the tone with moody, dark cabinets in Smoked Oak (from HUSK’s V-Groove Range), which quietly showcase the wood's natural grain in a soft-black finish. Next, elevate your organic textured cabinets with equally interesting hardware.
Black anodised aluminium is our material pick, in the form of our KING and KNIGHT Ring Pulls. Though featherweight to handle, aluminium hardware is more resilient than popular brass, plus has a lesser carbon footprint. The angular profiles of these ring pulls project confidently from cabinets, creating assertive touchpoints to help you navigate your kitchen.
Teamed with a mottled grey terrazzo worktop against a black brick wall, tonal elements are layered to create an intriguing monochrome kitchen scheme that'll impress your dinner guests.
