A quirky landscape enhanced by client’s arty flair
This design provides opportunity for the client to express their creative flair & allow a truly memorable garden to evolve.
The brief:
-
One-off design
The design proposed the layout & ‘bones’ for a totally individual space, so the client could take the space to the next level over time.
-
Natural materials
The design includes stone walls to offer form & timeless features, recycled brick steps for strength and pervious surfaces for rustic & textural access paths that meander around the garden.
-
Memorable
There are surprises & pockets of interest around every corner in this garden. Plant usage is varied & full – from cactus & aloes, to colourful glossy shrubs, native textural grasses to Mediterranean classics – all appealing to the senses & creating a feast for the eyes.

From the owners
“When we built our house, I was faced with the daunting task of turning a baron, excavated, dust bowl into a garden that we would love.
The plans Sally provided to us were comprehensive and exquisitely detailed. This was a personalised plan and not something picked from a template. Sally’s choices of plants meant we lost almost no specimens - even during the drought.
The garden Sally envisioned for us has matured and grown into something that exceeded our expectations. During Covid lockdown it has been an oasis of calm. We now live in our garden almost as much as our house. And when forced indoors we are blessed with gorgeous and tranquil views of nature.
I would highly recommend Sally to anyone planning a garden project while maintaining a happy family. Sally’s foresight saved me time and money. I have a garden that I am so proud of. Most of the credit I claim for its beauty belongs to Sally.”
