This is a really interesting on-going project with a huge area of 8000sqm over multiple levels. Mr and Mrs Grant needed some help to create a garden around a new house that they had built, but didn’t want to do it all at once. The first area they wanted to create were the patios and swimming pool areas around the house. This was challenging due to the slope we were working with and joining up the house with the studio whilst keeping them separate. We created 3 different terraces to finish with the pool area. Each area was held by retained walls made from natural stone topped with a tile and chose 3 contrasting but harmonious Italian ceramic tiles that were slip resistant. The second area we tackled were some lawn areas to start softening some of the landscape. Two areas of terraced lawns were created, separated and held by a retaining wall, which was rendered and painted white. This adds a contemporary feel to this area and a nice contrast to the pool areas whilst being tied into the white rendered house. The grass was specifically chosen to deal with the heat and one that did not grow to quickly to reduce the maintenance.
