Contemporary City Garden

Design, Project Management and Planting: Katherine Edmonds Garden Design
Landscaping: Mo Mulligan Landscapes

Geometric shapes and structural forms were used to implement the client's brief to create a garden in the style of 'The Hempel Hotel', London.

Clean lines with a mix of dark and light colours contrast against the lush green lawn. Natural materials and planting soften the lines and tie the design in with the surrounding buildings.

Re-vamping the summer house and extending the deck adds space for alfresco dining.

Pleached limes, stylish black metal pots, a low-voltage lighting system and simple planting are now maintained by Katherine Edmonds Garden Design on a regular basis.

“I really wanted to write to you to thank you for all the love and hard work you've put in to my garden, it truly does look spectacular and that's entirely down to you. I can't tell you how calming it is to come home to a beautiful garden after a manic day at work. You've really put your heart and soul in to making it look amazing. Thank you so much.”
