An existing garden reworked through material reuse, soil renewal and a new planting framework. What could be retained was kept, reassembled and given new purpose, allowing the existing garden to shape what came next.
At the front, exhausted ground was rebuilt from the soil up. Re-engineered terrain, a limestone base, mineral gravel and biodegradable thermal membrane establish the conditions for a resilient dry garden. A targeted, autonomous drip-zone irrigation system supports establishment and periods of extreme heat, delivering water only where required. Drought-tolerant planting reduces this reliance as the garden matures.

The result places you within the landscape rather than at its edge, surrounded by grasses, perennials and self-seeding species that will increasingly soften the geometry as the garden matures.
