Small Urban Garden Christine Wilkie Garden Design Modern garden

The owners of this small, sloping garden in south west London wanted a contemporary, family-friendly, seamless transition into the garden. The garden design features a lower-level sandstone patio for entertaining and an upper level for play and relaxation. A key requirement was low-maintenance, as well as play-space for two small children provided by using artificial lawn which gives the illusion of grass but without the maintenance.

An existing large Buddha was used as a main focal point in the garden, while a made-to-measure garden bench doubles as extra storage space for garden tools and children’s toys. Two raised planting beds link the upper and lower levels while a third bed in timber sleepers forms a small vegetable garden for the children. The contemporary garden style is complemented with bespoke planters with an overall planting style that combines Acers and bamboos with cottage garden perennials. Garden lighting extends the use of the garden into the evening and accents the focal point.
