Clean lines and water

Inspired by a TV show our client asked us to create an open plan space with two water features and tall elegant planting.

Using porcelain paving we opened up the space leading out of the existing conservatory and kitchen to form a large dining and lounging area.

The main focal point is the wall houses a centrally positioned water blade wall with water cascading into a linear pool bringing sound to the garden. This appears to lead to the second water feature, a shallow pool with three centrally positioned porcelain paving stones which have been drilled to allow a bubble fountain to push though with a gentler motion.

Flanked by linear planting beds housing a mixture of hot colour perennials and evergreen upright shrubs the water features create a wonderful view from the house.

The garage wall will be covered in Jasmine within time providing a heady scent for summer evenings by the water.

The existing hedge was left and will be kept smartly trimmed to provide a green backdrop to the new cool calm space.

Our clients were thrilled!
