was used to clad the walls to create
a seamless, uncluttered transition
in levels.
The soft grey reflects the shades
used throughout the house, so tying
the interior décor with exterior
materials. Crunchy Cedec paths
edged with setts offer contrast
and set off planting. A lead-clad
water cistern flanked with palms
and ferns in the cobbled lower
courtyard add an exotic touch and
offer a dramatic view from the pool
and upper floors. A matching fire
table and lounge chairs provides
space for relaxation after a swim.
The garden incline is terraced and
planted as a contemporary, three-
dimensional box parterre filled with
small, white roses and soft under-
planting.

Quercus ilex leading to the lawn
and to a pathway through an
arching ‘Cornus avenue’ to the
loggia to the rear.
Clipped hedging, domes, cubes and
pillars strengthen the architecture
of the garden giving way to a more
organic style of planting to the rear.
Ornamental trees, billowing hedges
of Hydrangea and fresh, seasonal
planting of roses, herbaceous,
grasses, ferns and bulbs deliver
constant, seasonal change.
