This is a city garden in Hammersmith, London which was originally an expansive lawn devoid of features and character and giving little interest and use to its’ owners. The family wishes were for an attractive but low maintenance and practical space. Hard landscaping materials needed sit in keeping with the character of the property, a London terraced period townhouse.

Michael Darvill: “We worked with Butter Wakefield Garden Design to create a relaxed and family friendly space for entertaining, and spending time together. A place they could enjoy both growing and cutting flowers. The lawn was replaced by Vande Moortels, used to create magical pathways edged with soft romantic planting.

The design is enhanced through the SeptimA Aureum clay pavers as they are a gentle colour blending well with the planting scheme and providing a soft backdrop to the greenery, helping the colours of the planting to really take the foreground and pop. To add further interest, we laid the pavers in a Herringbone formation on the lower terrace and then along the main central path leading up to the far end of the garden.

The design helps lead the eye to discover delightful spots of planting whilst giving the opportunity to create little havens leading off this main avenue where pavers have been laid in a running bond formation.
