The Downs

PROJECT 
OVERVIEW

Clean and crisp lines dominate the hard landscaping, and a sense of movement is created from the
feature water rills and sunken planting beds which work in parallel with the architecture and yet soften the space from all angles.

KEY 
FEATURES

01 The large rock water feature which throws back to the client’s Scottish roots.
02 Also, the steel pinned slats which form a sense of boundary without obstructing the view. These will be positioned to mirror the curve of the hills in the distance.
03 A sheltered modern contemporary courtyard surrounded by Sussex style flint walls and finished with clay pavers.
04 A Simple repeated palette of planting with tall upright grasses mix with perennials which punch colour throughout.
