Contemporary landscaped garden in Childcot, Exeter, Devon
A disused pond with minimal water overgrown and deep slurry.
Walk down granite lit steps with stainless steel and cool blue LED lights. Water is pumped over head threw stainless steel tubes, pre-drilled to allow water to flow down both sides of the transparent acrylic.
LED lights shine through each acrylic sheet, water from the sheets are caught in an LED lit sump with stainless steel overflows which cascade back into the moat.
Contrasting vertical staggered sleepers create planting areas and large seating areas both overlooking the elegant stainless steel water feature.
This garden comes alive at night with the help of subtle lighting to all perimeters beds, LED rope lights illuminate contrasting
granite floor through bottles under bench fire torches and fire pits cast dancing shadows throughout the garden.
Another angle of the sleeper and granite bridge, whilst the planters appear to be floating on a slate base throughout the moat. A granite bridge links one area to another.

An inaccessible rockery on a sharp radiant entwined with builders rubble made life difficult at the best of times.
New retaining walls and pillars allow the garden to be levelled in terrace. Long shallow steps flow down to a curved sunken patio. Wisteria masks the neighbouring views creating a very private area.
Mr Harrison, Bovey Tracey, Devon
Leylandii hedging and Eucalyptus once engulfed this tired forgotten garden. We used stainless steel rims to support both split level circular lawns with the lower lawn catching the water in the LED rills. White cobbles enhance the deep blue slate whilst granite planters offset the lawns perimeters.
Cobble and slate paths lead to a hidden composting and recycling area and further on to the garden shed.
Granite and slate steps access both lawns whilst an LED rill within the cobbles allow the over pond flow system from the central water feature to flow back to the pumping chamber, allowing water to recycle. Stainless steel tiered water feature as a visual and reflection element only.

Originally this gravelled area was a sea of rocks and weeds, the challenge was to create a magnetic garden using contrasting granite installed vertically and horizontally complimented beautifully de-style and location of the property and clients.
Mr Parker Bristol
This garden had nothing more than crazy paving and gravel, the area has now been transformed to a chic and low maintenance family garden.
Subtle lights within the entire garden and raised sleepers add tranquillity and harmony at any time. Angled lights bounce reflections off the stainless steel backdrop.

Black sleeper and stainless steel trim house the oiled water feature, whilst slate platforms float on the surface in
stainless steel pots. Beautiful deschampsia synchronise their movement with the wind.

White spar defines the graphite granite whilst encasing the perimeter. The backdrop fence is broken with a splash of vibrant colour , fatsia, japonica stand tall between two recycled bespoke mirrors.

This two tier garden was neglected many years before we commenced work, The curved family seat is illuminated from within the backrests and flooring as are the planters and steps . Stainless steel oil lamps are positioned as balustrades.
The three sleeper planters have the look of being dropped into place, a central stainless steel water feature is illuminated.
The lighting, with majestic Agapanthus standing true in a planter shared with hebes, Buxus and Juniper.
