Considering the area was practically a car park before hand, virtually just a concrete base, i think my design will really turn the space into a use-able garden and mirror Moyra’s style while giving the established and impressive town-house a worthy extension!

So after much practise and a couple of knock-backs, I finally had come up with a design that a client felt worthy of having built in their garden…phew! The customer was Mary G from Busby on the south side of Glasgow, and not only did she like the design she loved it enough to go [...]

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.

The aim of the design is to reduce the impact of the hard landscaping on the effect of the property – a traditional sandstone semi. Monoblock is certainly far too modern a material to use and the budget ruled out using traditional stone – the driveway area will be at least 110 sq m! The medium choice is the tumbled block which comes in 3 sizes and always looks handsome when installed.

The garden presents an awkward tri-angular shape which isn’t normally very easy to work function into. We could implement a rectangular theme, with the base lines off-centre from perpendicular with the house – perhaps at 90 degrees to either fence might work; but I wanted to achieve an introversial garden which would create an urban haven rather than one which stretches the boundaries of the space and tries to reach beyond the fence line. A large dominant circle presented a good base from which to build the different elements of the design upon.

This garden was built in the Busby area, [...]

The cascade water feature pools into a rill which follows down into the reflective pool. The rill heightens the audio and visual qualities of the garden – and will also act as a handy wine and beer cooler!!

The first thing i wanted to do was to create a bigger garden. By removing the bed which divided the garden into two narrow rectangles, and then implementing a circular design we can produce a more spacious area and procure more function for the space we are left with. Diminishing circles help to lengthen the garden and the circular design itself spreads the lateral space so as to appear larger – a handy technique when workin in small urban gardens!
