The new owners of this Tudor home wanted a place for their family to enjoy themselves outside, with spaces to entertain young children, teenagers, and adults alike.
GJLD designed a woodland walking path through the existing mature evergreen perimeter, adding a layered planting border and culminating in two seating areas.
