This overgrown, school piece of land has been transformed into a wildlife, forest garden where the children can learn. Richard Taylor school students now enjoy spending time in the garden everyday. Outdoor play and being in nature is proven to increase mental health amongst children, it can increase rates of learning by 20-25%, improve test results, concentration levels and attendance, and significantly reduces the impacts of ADHD.
We transformed this untidy front garden into a serene, Japanese themed space. Using typical Japanese culture throughout our design, HGD created a space that includes water, stepping stones path and small trees to create a relaxing, Japanese haven.
The playhouse section of this garden has now been transformed as the children have grown up. We have created a beautiful outdoor lounging area for all the family. The tiled rug is created from Fired Earth porcelain tiles and helps to create a cosy, outdoor room that can be enjoyed into the evenings.
