The garden of this new-build house outside Forfar has been transformed with the addition of circular lawns, enlarged patio and attractive planting. A gently curving path leads from the house to a bespoke raised planter with integral seating. A moon arch frames the views within the garden and out into the wider countryside.

This large garden near Dundee consisted of mature trees and several isolated flowerbeds but it lacked structure. The existing flowerbeds were enlarged and reshaped to create clearly defined lawn areas connected by grass paths. The geometric shapes of the lawns were balanced by beautiful, soft planting in a restricted colour palette of green, purple and white.

This new-build house near Perth had a wide flowerbed on a steep slope which made planting and weeding challenging. As an attractive design feature, and to aid access, a gravel path edged with natural stone was added. Shade-loving plants were used at the back of the border which receives little direct sunlight. Alpines were planted in the sunnier areas close to the patio.

A client in Angus asked for this ruined farm steading to be turned into a "Secret Garden." There was little soil so raised planting beds were created using a mixture of stone and logs. The layout included a curved path around a mature tree leading to a circular seating area at the far end. Finally, the planting beds were filled with a range of shrubs and perennials suited to dry, shady conditions.

This new house in Kirriemuir was built on a steep slope. A terraced design was used to create a series of usable spaces including a lawn, large patio and attractive gravelled seating area. Each area is surrounded by generous planting to create a series of distinct garden "rooms."

Water is a wonderful addition to any garden, bringing in wildlife and allowing a wider range of plants to be grown. In this garden near Kirriemuir an area of lawn has been replaced with a small wildlife pond. The shape of the pond has been planned to fit into the overall design layout of the garden.
