The Brief: The client required a modern garden using straight lines where modern materials and lay out contrasted with a more traditional planting.

The steep side was redesigned in three levels: the patio in yorkstone, the rectangular lawn and the circular and children playground on the back.

A simple and black painted water feature was turned into a simple focal point for the garden.

In the evening, lighting creates a dramatic effect for the evening parties.
