This urban garden was overlooked from all angles, a new build garden with little interest. The client’s brief was to provide some subtle privacy, attractive planting, areas for entertaining and relaxing, and a play space for their new baby. Cube designed a curved garden to enhance the space available for planting and entertaining whilst allowing a small lawn area for play. Slatted fence panels were used as alternating features to break up the feeling of enclosure. Trachelospermum jasminoide was trained onto the facing feature panel to soften the screen. Dicksonia Antartica Ferns were placed in the corners for subtle shade from the surrounding properties. The Ferns were then underplanted with a mixture of grasses and flowering perennials. A bespoke water-feature was formed as part of the feature fencing, creating an ambient sound to wash away any distractions from the relaxing space. Natural sandstone paving was chosen for a clean contemporary look. The curves delicately separated the patio into entertaining and relaxing areas. Soft lighting was evenly placed around the garden to enhance the focal points and extend the hours of entertaining.
‘The landscaped garden has changed our rear garden wonderfully. We cannot thank you enough for the high standard of workmanship and professional attitude and finish to the job. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to future customers. The water feature is splendid and a pure delight on our return from holiday.’
‘We would like to say how pleased we are with our garden. Many thanks to you and your team. You all worked so hard and it was a pleasure to have you here working. Many people have stopped to say how nice it all looks. We wish you all the best in your future work. ‘
‘Cube have been nothing but professional in all aspects from the design through Sean, to the planting. I would recommend their work at the highest level.
And I am very happy for any one local to come and see for themselves. I have had work done at the front of the house and Cube are returning in February for the rear, overall cost for both around £20,000
Thank you Cube and best wishes for 2016.’
