Is it just me, or do you also feel that Spring is not far off? 🌸🌿 Bulbs have already started to emerge in our gardens, and very soon, the beauty of snowdrops, eranthis, and crocuses will be joined by early-flowering trees like the Amelanchier lamarkii, which you can see in the Chiswick hideaway garden we designed a few years ago in London. ✨

This garden is packed with many different layers of planting to provide year-round interest, as well as interesting hard landscaping materials, such as the slate details along the path and the water feature at the end of the garden.

You may have heard that we’ve started our own online garden masterclasses. 🥳🎉🌿 The Chiswick Hideaway, photographed here, will be presented alongside another one of our projects in Amsterdam this coming Thursday, 20th February, at 7 pm GMT (UK). 🍿🌿

If you’d like to know more about the event content, please click on the SECOND link in our bio, where you’ll also find registration details to reserve your spot in our masterclass. If you’d love to attend but can’t make it, don’t worry – with the same ticket, you can rewatch the event up to 30 days later. 🙌🏻

I look forward to Spring as much as I look forward to seeing you on Thursday! Have a great start to the week!

Ciao,
Stefano

We were thrilled last night to win the Garden Jewel category at the SGD Awards @societyofgardendesigners for our Edgy Woodland Wonderland project in South London, UK. 🌿🥳

In the heart of the city, we transformed a bare 10x10 meter lawn into an enchanting woodland-inspired retreat. This project exemplifies how to create an explorative journey in a compact space, featuring strategically placed multi-stem trees, including Ginkgo, flowering cherries, and pines, which filter light and mimic the canopies found in natural woodlands. The undulating ground levels add an additional layer of immersion and exploration, enhancing the overall atmosphere. Instead of relying on a single focal point, we designed three off-centred feature walls clad with bespoke tiles that create dynamic visual interest and avoid rigidity in the garden’s layout. These walls are thoughtfully designed to interact with nature; their varying tile sizes and thicknesses create an interplay of light and shadows, reminiscent of dappled sunlight filtering through trees. The subtle green hues of the tiles resonate with the natural patina found in woodland environments, allowing the walls to blend harmoniously with their surroundings. The same tiles were also used on the ground, scattered to guide movement and intrigue as visitors walk through the space.

Complementing these design elements is a carefully curated matrix of grasses and perennials, along with a wildlife-friendly water feature that adds both auditory appeal and ecological benefit. The feature walls not only serve as focal points but also enhance the immersive woodland experience by providing a layered backdrop for plantings and contributing to the overall sense of connection with nature. 🍃✨

We’ll soon offer an online Garden Masterclass covering the design, build, and maintenance of this project. Stay tuned for announcements on our social media when bookings open. 🌿🍿🎉
