Modernising A Classic

A classic Georgian House in Bath. Original features dominate the garden but the client wanted a cost-effective modern solution to terracing within the space. Heavily constructed sleeper walls retain the banks contrasting with the original features and perennial planting with grasses adds a new modern dimension. The Upper terrace has also been replanted with cobbles and pebbles adding texture to the scheme.

 Sleepers form a strong line and contrasting colour from the original garden features. Variegated Hakonechloa grasses and deep purple salvia blooms form a string band across the space.

 The natural colour of the wood brings an additional feature to the space.
