Good design - whether hard landscaping or planting only works with the right materials, used and put together in a cohesive way. Plants are of course critical and we work with a number of top trade nurseries to source plants, trees and hedges that will thrive and look stunning in your garden and can be provided at discounted prices from typical garden centre retail prices.
The owners of a hotel in a conservation area in Bedfordshire needed to build a new community space for the hotel residents and day guests on the site of a derelict pub next door to their buildings. We were commissioned to design and project manage the build, that included complex heritage building designs for garden walls and renovation of an old Norman wall within the garden.
This client in Chorleywood was at the end of a large house renovation when we were called in to help with the landscape design. An old swimming pool area, plus a tricky front garden and small area at the side of the house were modernised with two large water features being incorporated into the scheme.
The garden design for a large Victorian House in Berkhamsted involved the planning and building of a new drive, oak framed garage structure and side garden to the house to provide a low maintenance garden with visual appeal. The design work drew inspiration from the new oak framed garage and the detailing on the chimney breast of the house.
