Matthew Stephens Landscape Garden Designer

Highgate, North London

This is another collaboration project with Emma Griffin. The garden, located in North London, was previously overgrown and primarily laid to lawn, featuring narrow planting beds and a small stepping stone pathway, as you can see in the images at the bottom of the gallery. It has now been transformed into a modern, family-friendly space that includes an outdoor gym, shower, and sauna.  

The design of this garden focuses on providing space for entertaining while also maintaining an area of lawn for young children to play. The family’s passion for Scandinavian living is reflected in the inclusion of a sauna, outdoor shower, and a large bike storage area. To seamlessly integrate these outbuildings into the garden's backdrop, we created a living wall. Since the architects used Corten steel for the new extension, we also incorporated this beautiful material into the garden design.
