Contemporary landscaping of a traditional garden - St Albans

Our clients, approaching retirement and expecting to spend more time in the garden, asked us to modernise their traditional rectangular garden, breaking up the space and introducing curves. They also needed to ground their newly constructed summer house and we designed a new patio with surrounding planting.
Part of the brief was also to create generous borders whilst maintaining many of the original mature shrubs. Colour at different times of the year was also a requirement, making the garden interesting throughout the seasons.
