The Brief
The client wanted their garden to have both a formal swimming pool and a natural pond along with other areas for sitting and entertaining.
The Solution
Thankfully, a very long garden enabled a design where these two water features wouldn’t conflict with each other, and two very different spaces were created. The far end has a beautiful natural pool, complete with fish, and a bespoke copper water bowl and copper ‘leaves’ set into the planting. A deck and bridge allow you to interact directly with the pool. Closer to the house, a much grander scheme includes a Shade Zone pergola with remote control blinds and roof blades. A bespoke steel seat filled with slate cladding separates this part of the garden from the more natural end, while making a stunning feature in its own right.
Colour splashes of teal planters tie in with one of the sections of steel seat and the teal blinds on the pergola.
