Court Lane 4, front

A low-maintenance, textural front garden

This contemporary front garden combines a gravel driveway, laid over a grid system for stability, with sculptural, drought-tolerant planting that softens the hard landscaping without compromising practicality.

Architectural yuccas and ornamental grasses spill informally along the timber-slatted boundary fence, while a bespoke bin store sits discreetly within the scheme, clad to match and extending the planting onto its green roof.

The result is a low-maintenance front garden that feels considered from every angle, including from above.
