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.
‘Thank you very much for the excellent job the company has done in our garden. We were very impressed with the speed with which the men operated.’
“The redesign has changed our lives for the better and everybody who visits loves the garden! We enjoy and really appreciate the garden every day even if it’s raining. The porcelain slabs look stunning when wet. Great view from our kitchen- dining area plus the lounge. More inclined to entertain on a regular basis now, sit outside in the evenings with our fire pit or have a glass of wine with friends as the garden view is so lovely to look at.”
‘Thanks very much for the good work, both Carla and myself are delighted at the end result. Congratulations to the two carpenters, who performed to a very high standard of workmanship. We will have no hesitation in recommending your company to friends and neighbours and hope in due course to use your company’s services again. Yours sincerely.’
