COUNTRY GARDEN
ILE DE RÉ

ILE DE RÉ, FRANCE

This challenging project included a patio garden, a sitting area, a lounging area with a swimming pool and jacuzzi and a large informal garden surrounding this holiday home facing the ocean. An 18 months’ project including hundreds of plants chosen carefully to survive the most extreme weather conditions. Hardwood decking and natural sandstone were selected to enhance the garden’s contemporary aspect, whilst still keeping it timeless. The stillness of the enclosed patio is enhanced by the addition of a black tiled mirror shallow pool reflecting the ever changing sky.
