Project Overview
Structured landscape renewal
Ashridge Garden Walk focused on transforming a fragmented outdoor space into a connected and purposeful landscape. The design introduced clear pathways, refined planting zones, and a stronger relationship between movement and structure across the entire site. Through careful integration of hardscape and planting, the garden now feels continuous and balanced. Each element was designed to guide flow while supporting long-term growth, resulting in a landscape that feels natural, cohesive, and easy to navigate.
