Two photos here of a garden I designed for a Ms W (and her dog, Ms. A) in the heart of busy South London, where in a typically over-looked, shaded, long and thin city garden I created a tranquil, sanctuary hideaway where she could both relax and chill out as well as provide outdoor space for workshops.

During 2011 one project I managed was a London Courtyard Garden entirely laid to patio, which my client Ms. A wanted to use more with family and friends. Limited budget, little soil and limited light levels required some creativity and therefore I have utilised two large raised beds I have lined to prevent water loss and for some uniformity 5 gold coloured large pots. The planting complimented the limited light in part of the courtyard and reflected light and added balance in the brighter areas. A wooden arbour was added later with climbers attached and plants such as Bamboo included in a small bed to provide some screening, sound and visual interests.
You don't have to be a client to get involved, send me your photos now! Let me know something about the photo(s) too so that I can post relevant information.
