RHS Harlow Carr - The most up-to-date garden in the 'Gardens Through Time' series is this very modern space, designed by Diarmuid Gavin. He is a renowned garden designer, well-known from various television series. 'Reflecting the aspirations of the modern home-owner', the garden features sculptural planting and clever use of glass, strong colour and shapes and reflective surfaces. It showcases the garden almost as another room of the house. I loved it, loved the harmony of colour and the pleasing curves.... though unfortunately it would look very odd if I tried to replicate it around my little Victorian house!
I could live with that.
ReplyDeleteIt is very pretty and the window is a great frame. I'm hoping to get my garden revamped professionally if it doesn't cost too much. I have established it over the past 25 years but now its too much for me.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading that in our garden we should have openings or windows that allowed our eye to travel further...this is pretty clever!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful, Jenny! I love the round window.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, jennyfreckles. My taste is probably more traditional.
