Islington garden


Maximizing a small landscape in North London
Designed by Tel-Aviv born, London based garden designer Amir Schlezinger, this contemporary woodland garden makes the most out of a small yard and extends the interior out and the exterior into the house. It is a "beautiful yet highly livable" space, a true outdoor room.

The same gray sandstone used inside the home was used as the primary paving surface in the garden to help visually merge the spaces. The irregular shaped patio and concrete planter walls with iroko benches articulate the space and create an illusion of space. Bright orange electrifies the basin of the minimal cube water feature and echoes a color used inside the house as well. The simple yet layered planting palette compliments the design perfectly.
