Family Garden in Barnes: A Modern Retreat with Italian Influence
This family garden balances clean, modern design with a deep connection to nature. The guest house and glasshouse integrate beautifully into the landscape, offering peaceful views and a space to nurture plants, promoting mindfulness and reducing stress.
The mini vegetable garden brings the therapeutic joy of growing food, while the meditation area, set in a quiet, shaded spot, encourages reflection and calm. A versatile play and dining area provides room for family activities, with the dining space encouraging alfresco meals that enhance connection with loved ones.
Italian touches—Mediterranean plants and warm stone paving—bring a comforting sense of home, while shared materials between the kitchen and garden create a seamless flow, enhancing the overall sense of space and a stronger bond with nature for mental well-being.
“We wanted to bring together elements of our lives that we love, our vision was interpreted perfectly. Our garden is now modern and soothing with architectural lines, our go-to for calming and re-energising moments in nature. A stunning backdrop for family meals and games in the garden.”
