Over
the years I have designed and worked on some very challenging landscape and
garden design projects with sloped gardens or areas of a project with
slopes. This new project in Marple though wins hands down for the sheer drop
involved to the back of the property. Leading from a small rear garden is the
drop in question, leading into an area of ancient woodland and down to a small
brook at the base of a steep ravine. The project will be one of the most
challenging structurally as the client's brief is for a cantilevered platform
shooting out from the end of the garden towards the woodland and with the added
bonus of steps down to the brook. But it doesn’t end there as part of the brief
also requires a complete redesign of the front garden where I am planning
contemporary rock formations inter-planted with edibles and herbs. Watch this
space for future updates on this exciting journey into the extremes of
contemporary garden design.

Really pleased with evolution of the concept designs for this new garden design project.
