Project Overview
This project was designed by Rosemary Coldstream Garden Design Ltd and centred on creating a functional, modern landscape for our clients in Hamilton Road, St Albans.
Garden Design
This garden design featured a sunken seating area which is a main focal point to the landscape. The sunken seating area had to be excavated to approximately half a metre. We also had to install hidden drainage to make sure it didn’t fill up like a swimming pool!
Next to the sunken seating, we had some nicely planted beds and a water blade installed to create more interest within this area, all set off with some lovely remote-controlled outside lighting.
We used London Stones Harvest sawn paving which unites beige with pastel colours of apricot and peach and some gentle veining. Sawn six sides and with a sawn surface, it has a warm, luxurious finish that’s versatile enough for both contemporary and traditional settings.
This stone was pre-sealed before being delivered to the site to keep the stone in its very best condition, which we recommend for all softer and lighter paving types. We clad the walls with the same stone and finished the step with some bespoke bullnose treads.
Finished Result
The finished garden is a stunning contemporary environment for our clients, offering year-round appeal.
