Long Thin Garden Design Proposal
This garden is long and narrow and is largely shaped by the fence line.
Whilst a single linear pathway would be a big mistake, dominating the view and emphasising the narrowness.
A meandering paved pathway on the otherhand creates a journey through the garden, past the pond and wildflower meadow onto the vegetable garden.
Using a mixture of soft and hard landscaping to help break up the corridor effect, and the curved path gives the illusion that the garden is wider than it is.
The inclusion of trees, shrubs provides further sensory interest in the garden and also blurs the lines between different garden zones.
The secluded decking around the pond is a secret place to relax and also a destination within the garden.
