DE BEAUVOIR GARDEN

Views from the house look out onto a densely planted slope, where bespoke carved stone steps appear to emerge naturally from the landscape. These steps lead to a dining and BBQ area, and then on to a curved wildflower turf lawn, bordered by lush planting packed with long-flowering perennials and ornamental grasses. At the rear, the garden opens up to reveal a secluded cedar-clad hot tub, nestled deep within the greenery. As the client is a chef, the planting is packed out with edible herbs and fruiting shrubs, carefully woven among the ornamental species.
