Rear Garden, Hampton
Hampton
A deceptively large Hampton garden restructured to create more places to relax, entertain and grow food.
The Brief
Realise the garden’s full potential.
The back half of the garden was redesigned to create a beautiful place to relax and entertain on a porcelain terrace under the pergola, alongside a productive growing area.
Design Thinking
Hand drawn before it is built.
Every project begins by hand, with drawings that explore how the garden should move, settle and feel before anything is built. The plan considers the house, the light, the views from inside and the quiet details that make a space feel personal rather than standard.
These early sketches shape the planting, materials, levels and moments of pause. They give the team a clear design language to build from, so the finished garden feels considered from the first line on paper to the final planting.
The Project
Entertaining and growing in one garden.
Raised sleeper vegetable beds are accessible from all sides, creating a practical and attractive growing area for fruit and vegetables.
Design Response
A simple route between the two halves.
A new porcelain terrace by the house and a stepping stone path connect the garden, while black limestone setts define the beds and provide a mowing edge.
