A stunning garden makeover for a wonderful family of three in Balham. They’d lived in their home for many years, but felt it was time for an upgrade.
The goal? To create an ‘outdoor room’ to echo the character of their beautifully designed home, producing a scheme and palette as if it were an interiors project – complete with floors, walls and ceiling; and blending indoor and outdoor spaces so they flow together seamlessly. Even in a small space, there’s endless potential to create something amazing.
The clients loved colour so we brought in a bold palette of terracottas and greens to tie in with the interior of the house. Seville clay bricks combined with Limestone stackers laid in a herringbone way provided a stylish rug-like effect for the two zones. We installed a pergola to bring height, but more importantly, to frame the garden and bring structure to the outdoor ‘room’. We finished with structured planting, stylish tiles, terracotta pots, an outdoor mirror and beautiful statement lights to extend the character of the house.
