Garden Styles
Create your dream garden!
When creating your dream garden, choosing the style that best suits your taste, doesn’t mean you have to stick with it for every feature, as it’s good to draw inspiration from other designs to create your dream garden. Here are the styles we specialise in:
Old English Rustic
Rustic means appropriate to the country as in plainness or sturdiness. Whether it's vintage garden furniture, a DIY trellis, or reclaimed sleepers, rustic gardens always feel cosy and casual, never sleek or manicured.
English Contemporary
A contemporary garden should have a relaxed and homey feel. It brings the outside in and provides a living space that reflects the owner and invites conversation while providing a modern look. When we talk about contemporary garden design, think sleek but unique.
Japanese
Drawing from Buddhist, Shinto, and Taoist philosophies, Japanese garden design principles strive to inspire peaceful contemplation. They often combine the basic elements of plants, water, and rocks with simple, clean lines to create a tranquil retreat.
Mediterranean
Inspired by the coastal areas of Spain, Italy and France, this style of garden combines relaxed materials and plants with formal accents and designs. The plant palette of a Mediterranean landscape is made of plants that provide texture, colour and structure - think lavender, cypress trees and ornamental grasses.
Italian
In Italian gardens, the use of water, statuary, symmetry, topiary, formal hedging, and focal points are all key. However, Italian influences can easily be recreated at home to fit any scale. It may seem daunting, but with understanding, superb garden spaces can be created even with modest budgets.
