Contemporary Garden Design, Berry Hill

Creating Tranquillity in Berry Hill

This project in Berry Hill required a complete garden overhaul to deliver a simple, contemporary design to the space that made it easier for our clients to manage.

The garden originally had an odd shape, which made it difficult for our clients to make great use of the space. To enhance the new garden design we created two distinct seating areas in the garden to maximise space and give our clients plenty of room to spend time outdoors.

Crafting the Layout: Our Garden Design Solution

The main portion of this design project was the development of the large patio and paving areas. As the landscape was an odd shape to begin with, it was challenging to create a contemporary garden design that made the best use of the available landscape while also meeting our client’s desires.

No project is too big or small for our garden design team and they expertly crafted a stunning new landscape for our clients in Berry Hill. To make use of the compact and oddly structured garden, our contemporary garden design took shape through the large patio, with an additional pergola and a small artificial lawn to maintain some of the natural appearance.

These structured areas would create two seating areas in the outdoor space, with one being underneath the pergola, which granted shade on a hot summer’s afternoon, and the other on the patio to soak up the rays.

Paving the Patio With Belize Porcelain Fino Paving

The paving choice was crucial in this project, as this was a large part of creating the contemporary design. To create a sleek, modern look to the landscape we installed Belize porcelain fino paving.

First, the area was cleared so we could meticulously mark and design where the new paving would be. Once these markings were complete, we dug down six inches, then backfilled with a 20mm crush run to create a solid, durable foundation for the paving.

The patio was carefully laid on a wet bed of sand and cement at the correct level. Charcoal edging was used to highlight the colour of the paving and separate the two areas.

Detailing: The Knightingale Way

Although the layout of the design was simple, attention to detail was crucial to getting this project right for our clients.

Following the installation of the paving, we then added lap fencing around the barrier. This was installed with lights, so the garden could be used in the evening and continue to be a beautiful haven for our clients.

To maintain some natural appeal in the garden, we installed an artificial turf. This lux grass was installed over a granite dush and detailed with a charcoal border edge, much like the patio, to separate the space and give it a distinct appearance.

Secured with Verta edging, the grass added a refined touch to the design and created more usable space for our clients.

The Final Result

The final result of this contemporary garden design is nothing short of a masterpiece. We created a sleek, modern landscape that maximised the landscape available to our clients – leaving them delighted with the results, along with our team.

The odd shape of the landscape posed a challenge for our team, which makes our work even more rewarding and is why we love what we do at Knightingale Landscapes.

From the first meeting with Kevin I knew I was in safe hands. I had previously dealt with other ‘landscape’ companies who only seemed interested in charging above what they should for a poor quality job. Kevin knew what was needed not only to satisfy my needs but more importantly my plot. Plans were drawn up and changed a couple of times, I’m quite hard to please at times. The work started and all the team were amazing, hard working, polite and knew what they were doing, Kevin was always on hand to keep me calm and make sure my OCD (lol) was ok. The garden was handed back on time and on budget and WOW what a transformation. Kevin has been back a couple of times to sort out a couple of snags and nothing is too much trouble. My garden is now an extension of my home and I’m so pleased I was introduced to Knightingale Landscapes and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kevin and his team..

I have been planning my garden makeover for a couple of years and never thought it would ever look like it does now and that is thanks to Kevin and his great team. From the planning stage through to work commencing on the garden Kevin was so helpful and knowledgeable, giving me advice on materials, and how everything would work together. Our garden is on different levels so we now have steps up to our lawn and patio which look amazing. The work was carried out to the highest standard and each day when they had finished the lads cleaned everything and left things neat and tidy. I cannot thank Kevin and his team enough for giving me a garden to be proud of. My husband and I are never out of it now and know that we will have many happy times spent in our beautiful new outside space. If you want your dream garden contact Kevin and his great team, I am so glad I did.

We cannot recommend Knightingale Landscapes enough. From the first contact we had with Kev he was very professional and delivered a great customer service. We were clueless as to what we wanted apart from the fact that our back garden needed to be dog friendly. Kev came back to us with a design that was perfect. We had our back & front garden landscaped along with new fencing. From start to finish Kev and his team worked so hard, kept everything tidy, with regular updates on progress. We requested additional work and nothing was too much trouble. The final result is a beautiful garden that we enjoy so much. A fantastic job completed by reliable, professional people.

We have a smallish, awkwardly shaped garden surrounded by walls and fences on a new development. We go away frequently enough to want a low maintenance garden but also need sufficient plant interest to keep enjoyment of our outdoor space not just limited to sitting out with a glass of wine. Kevin surveyed the plot, produced an imaginative design, gave us a quote and offered us a start date. He and his team duly started on the date they said they would. Each day just enough materials for that day’s work were delivered and at the end of each day the site was left clean and tidy. The job took exactly the length of time Kevin said it would and cost exactly what he said it would. We are delighted not only with the result but also with the whole experience. As it happened we were away for the last few days of the project but such was our trust in Kevin and his team that we were happy to leave him to finish the job and make any last minute adjustments to the planting.

I cannot speak highly enough of Kevin and his team, they are professional hard working and just lovely people. My garden went from being a mass of weeds and stinging nettles and generally uncared for (the house was rented before we bought it) to being a lovely space for us to spend time in. The work was carried out during the school half term so they had two 5 year olds asking questions all the time and they were extremely patient with them. So if you are going to have a garden makeover Knightingale Landscapes are the best people for the job.
