Lush modern garden with trees, round planters, and manicured shrubs; overlay reads 'MODERN DESIGN'.

I’ve been a bit quiet on Insta of late. It’s planting season, we’ve been very busy planting up lots of gardens. 🌳 Three more to go in April. We’ve got this…… Here’s a finished Greencube garden. A small domestic garden, pared back, layers of green textures, with a simple palette including lots of grasses , tree ferns and statement pots. 🌳# gardendesign This garden was shortlisted in the national garden design awards @the_sgld back in 2019 and still remains a firm favourite 🌳 The grass Hakonechloa macra is a favourite too, repeated in many of our designs.

Greencube wins a national award for a small new build garden in Kent. 🌳The garden was awarded the Significant Impact Award, at the annual Awards ceremony – @the_sgld The judges described the space as ‘a fantastic example of what can be achieved with a new build home. It celebrates the value a designer can bring, showing how thoughtful design can transform both a home and the lives of those who live in it’.Thank you for the wonderful feature in this month’s Garden Design Journal.Describing Greencube’s gardens: ‘known for their intelligently zoned layouts, their elegant balance of planting and hardscaping, and the simple palette of materials used to give each garden its own bespoke and harmonious look and feel.’Our interview covered style, budgets, the process, teamwork, delivery, making a difference & the impact it makes to those clients that desire a well designed garden. 🌳Words Arabella St John Parker@the_sgld Design and planting @greencube_design Construction @hythegardenlandscapes Huge thank you to our clients who trusted our process and are now taking great care of their new garden 🌳

We have lost over 90% of our wildflower meadows in the UK in the last century. Due to land development and changes in farming methods. Take the curvy clay path to our modern meadow garden. A nectar rich meadow mix created for Honey and Solitary Bees, Butterflies, Birds, Beetles, Bats and Moths.I have added three multi stem Prunus serrula trees and a privet corridor that supports the privet hawk-moth but also attracts bees, butterflies and provides food and cover for birds. Sit within the meadow and watch nature arrive 🌳🦋#lowcarbonfootprint #meadow#meadowgarden #meadowseed

The pool was given a new veneer with green glass mosaic tiles then wrapped in grey limestone and timber decks.A soft material palette mixed with a nectar rich planting scheme and meadow. It’s our Greencube style, less is more, bold but dreamy.
