Life of Design

No matter what size a property you have, no matter how small or large, what matters most in terms of how it serves, how it looks and the legacy you leave, great design distinguishes the ordinary from the astounding. It’s an absolute truism that good taste can be purchased — it’s what talented designers have in abundance and do best. I’ve seen scores of garden spaces throughout London and the southeast of England, and the most beautiful ones are those that have been designed with flair and polish. This garden and patio in Richmond Hill is an example of some of the finest details comprising an incredible whole that I’ve seen. The pergola is from three seasons and not only provides an all-weather sectioned area for outdoor entertaining, but it also keeps the south-facing kitchen extension cool in summer. And this garden — perfection.
