A modern garden design for East London
Seeing blue in Woodford
Brief
This garden had some partial landscaping done when the clients bought the property. A patio from the back of the house wraps round the side return and extends from the back of the house by 3 metres.
The client is keen in particular to increase the privacy down the left hand side of the garden as the boundary with the neighbour is particularly low and the client feels overlooked quite considerably.
They would also like an area down the bottom of the garden to catch the last of the afternoon sun.
Solution
The modern garden design for East London will be landscaped from the existing patio. Stretching down the garden a decked walkway leads to a large area of decking suitable for housing a large rattan sofa and table.
Along the left hand boundary where screening needs to be increased a series of Perspex screens of varying heights and widths set on the diagonal help to increase privacy.
Two squares of lawn slightly off sett divide up the space, on the left where the second lawn insets, three fibreglass tanks, planted with bamboo again help with screening from next door.
Another trio of screens sites slightly further in the garden help to provide an interesting backdrop and opportunity for dramatic lighting, as well as aiding privacy while sat on the decked area
