Garden Design Inspiration

Using pinterest to keep track of inspiring design ideas is so helpful when you’re planning a new interior design, but we also love to use it for garden design. As we continue the renovations at our showroom in Felsted, Essex, we have included an outdoor area too which we are so looking forward to using this summer.

Of course, the only downside with pinterest is that you can get completely carried away thanks to the plethora of inspiring images and ideas. Here are some of our favourites from our Outdoors board:

A lovely spot in this Gary Ratway designed garden where the sunlight falls on ornamental grass (Stipa gigantea) seen through the doorway.

This minimalist city garden in London was designed by Luciano Giubbilei with three sculptural multi-stemmed Amelanchier lamarckii trees.

Take a look at the work of Paul Henderson in California – particularly if you want ideas for hardscaping – see also this feature on Gardenista for the full 101.

The perfect English garden at this beautiful Hampshire home.

The gardens at Cothay Manor in Somerset are well worth a visit – there are twelve acres of magical gardens surrounding the manor. Many garden rooms, each a garden in itself, are set off a 200 yard yew walk. In addition, fine trees, cottage garden, courtyards, and a river walk all add together to make this a plantsman’s paradise.
