The Brief

  • Create an entrance for a large property which is compatible with a four car garage.
  • Provide screening to the roadway which is natural and colourful.

Our Concept

  • Build a feature area for entertaining which is also child friendly.
  • Initiate lengthy consultation with the clients to identify textures, colours and feel.
  • Identify and agree the use of hard material as the preferred solution.
  • Give the client direct access to our stone supplier to select the materials (a vital part of this project) to ensure stone shapes and sizes are "fit for purpose".
  • Hand grade all five tons of slate to provide a natural look.
  • Create a separate area for a raised alpine bed to provide a contrast which, once mature, will provide colour and contrast to the slate.
  • Inter-twine Wythe fencing to the hedgerow and plant with roses, honeysuckle and clematis.
  • Set all into a membrane and gravel cover to reduce weeding maintenance.
  • Provide a twelve foot high screen to the neighbour's garage from two four foot panels against twelve foot posts.
