The client’s brief was to create a private courtyard area, separating this space from the rear lawned area. The area was to be screened with feature trees and closed off with an original Indian carved door that the owner had sourced. Cube designed and built a black feature frame and fence to hold the Indian door. Evergreen Clematis Armandii were trained around the fencing to soften the screen. Beech trees wrapped around the rest of the courtyard for privacy, these were underplanted with a combination of white hydrangeas and purple flowering plants. Traditional Vande Moortel Paving was chosen for its natural character, suiting the property and antique features of the garden design. Soft lighting was evenly placed around the courtyard to complete the look.
A separate front driveway area was created using a grid and gravel system. Box Hedging and Topiary Balls were incorporated to soften the entrance and complement the period property.
Garden Design Essex Testimonial, ‘Garden looks great and I even did a bbq last Saturday – was determined to get out there!’
‘A quick note to say how delighted we are with our major garden transformation. It was hard to imagine how it would look, despite Sean’s beautiful plans and design, and even up to the point of just needing to put the turf in, it still took some imagining. But now it is amazing, super colours and features, height from the Pergola, and the sunken patio is warm, sheltered and catches the evening sun. You are a great bunch of people, friendly, polite and hard working, and did a fantastic job of keeping mess to a minimum and clearing up afterwards, I think the garage is cleaner now than before you started! Sean’s eye for detail and high standards definitely shows, and we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending you. Thank you.’
‘I am very pleased indeed with the completed project. Based on my own experience, I do not hesitate to recommend Cube. A professional company with efficient and reliable staff.’
