London Garden Design Inspirations – ‘American Dinner Service’
This garden designed by our London Based Garden Designer takes elements of its curves and angles to create a sensuous garden space. A large kidney shaped patio takes centre stage, spacious enough to accommodate a table and chairs. This terrace is paved with 600mm x 300mm Sandstone slabs to help give it an elongated appearance, and edged with decorative setts. Setts are also used to form the central pathway, evocative of the handles of the water jug from the dinner service. The patio will also house three sculptural concrete stools, created to resemble the salt and pepper pots in the dinner service.
The pathway leads to a large lawn laid out diagonally across the garden. This will be bisected by the pointed end of the main terrace and the sett pathway attached to the next one, allowing for free flow through the space. The last area is an oval paved patio large enough to accommodate a sunken hot tub. Planting in the space would be simple and minimal: probably utilising evergreen plants such as choisya and spurge to reflect the colours in the dinner service.
