Contemporary Curves Garden, Camden

This shady London garden was brought back to life with light stone paving and splashes of colour. The garden follows the architectural curves of the house. The basement terrace combines steps and seating with vibrant walls. A flowing path widens and narrows leading to a lawned area with curving bench. A terrace catches the morning sun. The water feature adds rippled light to the space, and planting tumbles over the walls behind. Planting is designed to make the most of the shady aspect with Japanese maples providing structure. The old rocking horse – an original resident of the existing garden – was found a new home in the planting.
