Contemporary Urban Garden Design

This design for a contemporary urban garden was commissioned by a young professional seeking a garden room for relaxation and entertaining.

BUILD IN PROGRESS: This design is currently being realised as a client self-build. The client commissioned just a design for the garden, and has tackled the build and planting themselves.
