The Midland's Mediterranean ....
As seen on TV …our wood stain was featured on the Love Your Garden ITV.
The garden was one we could all identify with, a modern build in a cul de sac with a square of garden, turfed and with fences all around. An estate agent would describe it as a ‘blank canvas’ and it certainly was. But with the dream team and their amazing ideas the garden took on a positively Mediterranean feel.
With olive and cypress trees, rosemary and lavender bushes and an abundance of grasses mixed with gravel and stones the garden not only looked great but was low maintenance.
The outdoor kitchen and dining area was a perfect area for entertaining. The seating area with a water feature provided a restful spot to unwind after a long day and the table for two in the ‘sundowner area’ …well who wouldn’t want a G&T every evening!!! Even the pergola had a swing.
To create clearly defined levels the team added in a retaining wall…but no sleepers here. Instead a Gabion (a metal cage) filled with pebbles. It looked modern.
To tie in with the scheme the fences were painted with our Royal Exterior Dove Grey and our NEW D19 Nude Taupe. And the shed and window boxes were painted in Dove Grey too.
Tricks of the trade this week… kick the angles to divert the eyes and make the feet walk in different directions. It worked.
All that was missing was a gecko!!
