Dulwich
A picture garden for a chic townhouse in Dulwich
Proof that size is no object, this bijou garden has depth that belies its size, thanks to a rich palette of textural rusts and browns, across two levels. Bespoke corten steel and Dutch clay pavers create warmth and depth, and a great base for a simple palette of plants chosen for their movement and character.Jungly shapes jostle alongside grasses and greens, and a custom-built hardwood bench that makes the most of the space.
The selective palette of plants were chosen to deliver maximum effect in a small space - tall spires of Miscanthus waft over shaggy mounds of Hakonechloa, and a trio of sultry burgundies Persicaria, Sanguisorba and Astrantia create a colour story that is picked up in the corten and pavers.
Evergreen Jasmine has begun to cover the fencing and will eventually ensconce the space in a veil of fragrant blooms.
