MORNINGSIDE, EDINBURGH

Award winning family garden

Our design response centered around a large circular patio, positioned for sun, wrapped with tiers of corten steel to create an ‘amphitheatre’ of terraced planting. These terraces integrate gravel steps to connect to the garden room and deck above. A glass-clad steel pergola was introduced, with a louvred roof and integrated kitchen within. New planting borders surrounded this new corner of the garden to create a sense of enclosure, and a steel-edge gravel path meandered back to the house amongst new planting.
