King's Gate
At Terra Foras we work with clients to allow creativity to blossom and modern elegance to intertwine with the vibrant passion of nature. This garden is a true testament to bold design and a love for the outdoors.
This two-in-one masterpiece seamlessly combines outdoor entertainment with relaxation and contemplation, offering an enchanting escape that delights the senses.
The first area features an outdoor entertainment space. Sheltered beneath a covered pergola, the space provides a cosy firepit, a gentle water feature, and a BBQ space. The carefully curated formal planting style features grasses, roses, and an abundance of nepeta and lavender, creating an inviting atmosphere for friends and family to gather.
The other part of the garden is a transformation from a once mundane tarmac driveway into a breathtaking relaxation and contemplation space. The heart of this oasis is a mature Japanese acer, a symbol of wisdom and tranquillity. There’s a cascade water feature and extensive lush planting creating the ideal backdrop for a leisurely read or a peaceful afternoon siesta.
This space is more than a garden; it's a living canvas of nature and design and a passionate celebration of the outdoors.
This once simple outdoor space has been transformed into an urban haven. The Terra Foras team loved the challenge of seamlessly merging classic charm with contemporary features for this Aberdeen gem. Laden with vibrant hues and fragrant scents, the garden now stands as a harmonious sanctuary for wildlife and a tranquil retreat for unwinding amidst nature.
