Richmond Hill

A forward thinking design proposal within the curtilage of a Grade II Listed building. As a relatively large garden in the context of Richmond Hill, the opportunity to create a green oasis which extends seamlessly from the back of the house presented a number of challenges relating to TPO’d trees, variable ground levels, integration of works within extensive root zones, and a Clients aspiration to have an instant garden. The scheme embraced a number of integrated design components including level terraces, extensive water harvesting strategy, water features, new vegetable and kitchen garden, sculptural features, feature benches and archways.
