Introduction

This medium-sized plot located on the side of a heritage village in Renfrewshire had an old stone wall on the boundary and bordered a countryside field landscape. The client had just built an extension and needed new stair access. They also emphasised a sustainable style, which included recycled material and plants that attracted pollinators. Here's how we added whimsical beauty to this garden: 

Our Design Process

  • We used natural clay pavers to create a meandering path through the garden. 
  • The main patio, with a fire pit in the middle accentuating the old stone wall, was built using sandstone slabs. 
  • We levelled the garden slightly using timber and corten steel retaining walls. 
  • Two staggered square decking platforms create sculptural access to the extension, emphasised by linear lighting. 
  • We applied a rustic cottage planting scheme.
