Glasgow South: Long Narrow Garden Design in Clarkston

This end of the garden gathers the majority of the afternoon and evening sun – so some shade in the form of a ‘floating’ pergola, is welcome but I fell also necessary here to reconcile with the obstruction posed by the garage building. Here the garage is somewhat integrated with the garden and therefore becomes less obtrusive. the form of the pergola offers some contrasting lines to those established by the elliping ovals and this helps to confirm the design aesthetic within thi garden.

Glasgow East: Small Driveway Garden Design in Baillieston

The segments of lawn will brighten up the whole area, coupled with the planting scheme Pamela will have a really attractive garden to greet her from work and have the neighbours casting a envious eye! I think the sweeping lines create much more interesting shapes than your conventional driveway and will frame the house perfectly.

Ayrshire: Terraced Family Garden Design in Stewarton

The Plan is to incorporate a circular theme based on the client’s own idea of having circular steps from the back doors: I have developed this throughout the space to produces an orbital series of elipsing circles to form each element in the garden design.

Renfrewshire: Entertainment Decking Garden Design in Howwood

My initial ideas for the garden design were to compliment the shape of the plot – Robert didn’t want the space to be divided up in the manner that it had been previously and wanted to view the whole area from the vantage of the requested deck area. My use of diminishing circles accentuates the length of the garden certainly, but helps to lead the eye down and around the garden and take in the pleasure of the planting.
