Fulham, SW6

Brief:

A young couple living in Fulham, SW6, asked for a new rear garden courtyard space which would embrace their lifestyle and reflect their stylish interior decorating style. The existing space was also overlooked by neighbours, and creating privacy was key.

Solution:

This small terrace garden has been dramatically improved. An expanse of honed travertine creates a visually warming and eye-catching floor surface. Raised planters of painted block and render walls help create a defined and manageable planting area. Hardwood lateral timber screens create both a stylish backdrop to the garden that provides screening and privacy. For a touch of drama, we embedded a blade water feature into a slate-clad wall that is the focal point both during the day and night. Planting is simple and easy to maintain.

Features:

• Hardwood screening to provide privacy
• Low maintenance
• Dramatic focal point
• The lighting scheme provides a stunning view from inside beyond the hours of daylight
