Having a meal at a leafy rooftop restaurant in East London one day, the owners of this 1980s house fell for the relaxed mood of the casual seating areas and decked walkways amid grasses and climbers, and decided they’d love that look in their garden. So they contacted designer Natasha Nuttall to help them turn their neglected patch into a serene space where they could enjoy being outdoors and entertain with ease.
Undeterred by the tight dimensions of the plot, Nuttall cleverly fitted in a lounge area, a dining table, a casual seating spot and an outdoor kitchen, all softened and partially hidden by lush plantings.
