Dramatic Terraces

Wimbledon Common

2019

We are often faced with gardens on substantial slopes where simple solutions are challenging. Level changes can  contribute to a garden design that allows for different areas of use and interesting garden solutions such as the main lounging terrace, created half way down the garden under a magnificent ancient Magnolia tree.

The levels descend for almost 12 metres across just 30 metres from a roof terrace, through a basement terrace to the main lounge area and then further to a lawn and finally a kitchen garden. Great for exercise but with each level we’ve added some focus to the space whether its a collection of Vietnamese planters, a water feature or stylish raised beds.
