Visualisations by Morse Webb Architects

 

Wiltshire Garden Design was asked to design a peaceful haven for residents, families & friends, creating a garden to reconnect with nature and find solace in its embrace .

 

Bedroom doors lead out onto a semi-private decked seating area, screened by a slatted cedar trellis .  A resin bonded pathway allows easy access for wheelchair users to the garden beyond, enabling visitors and residents alike to enjoy the gardens.  Stepping stone paths cut across lawns to encourage further exploration and the lawns are broken up with hedges and borders creating smaller, more private spaces within the gardens.  Sculptures integrating water provide focal points through the space.

Groups of Prunus serrula 'Tibetica' and Betula utilis var. Jacquemontii 'Snow Queen' provide high level screening from surrounding buildings and create areas of dappled shade which will be under-planted with spring bulbs and shade-loving perennials including Geranium phaeum 'Album' & Tellima grandiflora.  Repeated large swathes of grasses such as Miscanthus sinensis 'Kleine Fontäne' and Calamagrostis 'Waldenbuch', combined with Verbena bonariensis and Veronicastrum virginicum 'Fascination', create height and movement through the garden. Interest is maintained into the winter with the coloured bark of trees and shrubs such as Cornus sanguinea 'Midwinter Fire' and the seed heads of alliums and grasses.
