Hampstead part 2!



      Many Thanks to Julie Zelidin for designing my favourite garden yet! Also thank you for getting me to help manage the build and do all the decking.

There are some particular reasons I think this is such a success, the size of the plot and the gradient the garden was before the build helped with the multiple level changes through the garden. Using three different tones of grey paint on the rendered planters and retaining back wall work amazingly with the slate terrace and lawn edging. Along the right hand side the metal pergolas in each planter are a good addition of another material and when the climbing roses are established they will create a softened structure to compliment the sharper lines throughout the garden.
  Obviously the deck helps to bring the whole garden together with the sloping deck travelling along the lawn linking the raised and lower deck. I enjoyed the technical aspects of the build and the great team I was working with.
