This garden is designed for a young active family who love to entertain and didn’t want to spend all their spare time slaving in the garden. It is nested amongst large native trees near a 1960’s home that provides strong bones which allowed to structure the garden. The house is really a viewing platform with the garden at center stage. Large expanses of windows at the rear open out on to generous outdoor living spaces whilst garden views are revealed from carefully framed side windows. The garden also includes a pool for the fast growing tribe of kids. Material choices are sympathetic to the neutral tones of the house – muted greys of pebble seeded aggregate and weathered timber all work easily in the space. The outdoor furniture is chose to show that the family likes modern interior design a lot. [Eckersley Garden Architecture]
