Sevenoaks, TN15

A complete redesign of a large sloping garden.

The space is totally multifunctional, allowing the clients to explore and immerse themselves in nature, whilst also being able to host large groups of people for parties or community events. The garden is a microcosm of Kent, and has incorporated wild hedgerows, orchards, meadows and woodland planting in a way that naturally blend together, with more ornamental and relaxed versions included in the first third of the garden. Each section can be explored on its own, with multiple routes, and great circulation through the garden, meaning the clients will never tire of the same old route when walking in the garden. The meadow, orchard and woodlands are spaces that the clients can feel like they are in the wilderness, despite having not left their property. The details throughout the domestic garden comment on our interactions with nature; on observing and respecting the wilder corners of our wildlife and local habitats, in a way that does not interfere, but rather allow it to flourish before our eyes.
