Mediterranean Garden Design

Immerse yourself in the allure of Mediterranean landscapes, reimagined for the UK climate with a distinctive Australian flair. At Katerina Kantalis Garden Design, we specialise in crafting gardens that evoke the warmth and tranquility of Southern Europe, seamlessly blended with the resilience and texture of Australian native flora.

The Mediterraneo Garden: A Harmonious Fusion

Our signature project, “The Mediterraneo Garden,” exemplifies this unique blend. By integrating drought-tolerant Mediterranean plants like lavender and rosemary with Australian natives such as kangaroo paw and grevillea, we create gardens that are both sustainable and visually captivating. Natural materials like terracotta, sandstone, and weathered timber are employed to enhance the rustic charm, while thoughtful layouts ensure functionality and flow.
