portadown

A large garden design project for a contemporary dwelling designed by Glyn Owen at The Designworks Studio. The design concept looked to compliment the architectural style of the new building by replicating the bold geometric outlines into the landscape. This was achieved with block rendered walls and modern timber fencing which extend out from the house, carving out individual spaces. A series of beech hedging and lime trees reinforced this concept with a balance of soft and hard boundaries that collectively make up a patchwork layout. The strong sweeping curve of the driveway meanders through each space breaking through the boundaries and creating an opportunity for movement and circulation between each space.
