Contact DetailsItalian Style Garden

This Italian style garden was created as a solution to a very sloped site. The garden fell away and had a very small sitting area right beside the fence at the end.

We designed a garden with a journey through the plants. We provided deep elegant steps like a flight of stairs. Each side we planted either aromatic or Mediterranean inspired plants. There are several olive trees and lots of wafty and wavy grasses.

The inclusion of a beaten copper water feature and a sandstone sunken patio completes the Italianate feel. Painting the fences in a wonderful blue reflects the theme and really sets the plants off well.

Contemporary blue fencing and two tier garden adds to the cool Mediteranean feel.

Grasses and lighting give a lovely effect when viewed from either the sunken sandstone patio below or the floor level deck above.
