Not all gardens require our full garden design service. Sometimes clients just want a quick makeover to give them a usuable space that is nice to look at and even nicer to be in.
Here is a case in point. A small courtyard filled with gravel by the builder following a recent renovation.
The space is lifeless and there is nowhere really to sit out apart from the gravel which doesn’t make for the most comfortable surface. The wall of the next door neighbours extension is ugly but the old redbrick wall below has a certain charm.
The white walls are stark and blinding in the sunshine. What to do on a modest budget? Answers on a postcard please. See what we decided to do in our next posting.
