A calm, unhurried garden built for slow mornings and long evenings, where cedar fencing and a floating cedar bench sit within crisp steel-edged retaining beds.
The brief here was refreshingly simple: a space to sit out in, sunbathe, read a book and unwind with a drink — a garden built purely around the pleasure of being outside.
Everything was designed around that one goal — genuine, unhurried outdoor living, with nothing to maintain and nothing to distract from it.
Timber fencing wraps the space, paired with a cedar bench and steel retaining beds that keep the planting crisp and contained. The floating bench was the hardest part of the build — getting the cantilevered structure to sit level and remain solid took real precision in the joinery.
Zen, stylish, colourful — a garden built for doing absolutely nothing, very well.
The decisions that shaped it.
