Family Garden, Hove Park

The Brief:

This project involved designing a family-friendly garden in the Hove Park area, tailored to a family who had recently extended their property. The new design needed to harmoniously link their large kitchen/dining area, with bi-folding doors, to the outdoor space, despite the significant change in levels.

Key elements for this Family Garden in Hove Park included:

A spacious lawn for kids' activities.
A dining terrace adjacent to the house.
A lounging area to enjoy the evening sun.
Privacy from neighboring properties in Hove Park.
Preservation of the large evergreen trees at the rear of the garden.
All-year-round, pollinator-friendly planting with a preference for ornamental grasses.

Overview:

The solution for this Hove Park Family Garden was a large raised dining terrace, level with the kitchen, allowing for an easy transition from indoors to outdoors. Steps leading down to the garden were flanked by raised beds, integrating the planting into the home's view. A curved pathway in this Hove Park Family Garden led to a contemporary dark grey metal pergola, providing a relaxing adult lounge area. The unique circular lawn design in this Family Garden enhanced the sense of space and offered visually pleasing views from the terrace and house. Surrounding the lawn, the planting beds included ornamental grasses for movement, along with pollinator-friendly shrubs and herbaceous plants.

Result:

The transformation of this Family Garden in Hove Park was a resounding success. The raised terrace provided a perfect dining and viewing platform. The circular lawn and radiating planting beds added a playful yet elegant touch to the Family Garden, with ornamental grasses creating dynamic movement. The pergola corner became a favorite spot for relaxation, capturing the essence of a Family Garden in Hove Park.
