A modern, rugged coastal family garden in Bournemouth, Dorset.
Shaped by local Purbeck limestone, used in sawn slab and gravel formats alongside large-format Schellevis slabs, with resilient, characterful trees and planting are selected to weather coastal conditions and soften the strong architectural lines. The design creates sheltered outdoor spaces for year-round use, while celebrating a strong sense of connection to the garden's wild coastal setting.
