URBAN GARDEN
CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL SPACE
PRENTON
NORTH WEST, UK
A modern, minimal feel with privacy for entertaining was created in this overlooked garden. From a totally blank canvas, this little haven is a suntrap and welcome retreat for its fashion business owner to relax in with friends.

The dark timber fencing is a perfect backdrop to enhance foliage colour and texture. The grasses create movement near seated areas adding to the relaxed atmopshere.
Hornbeam ( Carpinus betula fastigiata) provides privacy, Silver Birch (Betula utilis jacquemontii) for dappled shade and lovely white bark. Speciman trees, June Berry (Amelanchier Lamarkii) for changing seasonal interest and Chinese Dogwood (Cornus kousa ‘China Girl’) for pretty white blossom adding variety and detail to this garden.
