• The two boundaries created by native mix hedging and a striking habitat wall, containing bricks and logs, provide food and shelter for garden creatures
• The woven wicker 'pear pod' sculpture seat, designed by Ellen Mulcrone, is a play area for children under a shady Pyrus nivalis

The Family Garden is designed to be a relaxing space where insects thrive and children are immersed in nature. Intended for an environmentally conscious family, the garden is a learning environment inspired by the enchanting and lasting impression a garden can have on children through play and discovery, instilling an awareness of our collective responsibility towards our natural surroundings.

The garden is relaxed and unmanicured. Fruit trees and a shaggy lawn are surrounded by soft, informal planting, creating habitats for insects and other animals. Key plants include Digitalis, Cirsium and Deschampsia. The colour scheme is primarily layers of green with bursts of white, purple and dark pinks.
