This small garden beside a terraced house is arranged across three connected levels, creating a surprisingly spacious and dynamic composition within approximately one hundred square metres. A timber terrace with an outdoor kitchen and dining area extends along the house, followed by a central gravel area for seating, while a slightly raised upper level completes the sequence of spaces.
The planting is based mainly on herbaceous perennials and ornamental grasses, with a strong emphasis on foliage texture, restrained colours and long-flowering species. Pale mineral mulch visually unifies the garden, brightens the planting and helps retain soil moisture while reducing weed growth. Despite its lush appearance, the garden has no irrigation system and remains in excellent condition even through hot, dry summers.
