A visit to some new apartments in Kensington where we have created a number of terraces, balconies and gardens…

This project in Kensington was technically challenging due to the nature and layout of five apartments over four floors including a roof terrace. The apartments were newly built and completed earlier this year each with a garden, terrace or balcony. We had to take exact measurements of each space for the creation of a series of bespoke planters. Some planters were designed to have built-in benches and others were designed to fill and divide the space with planting to give year-round interest. The planters were craned into the apartments at the end of last year for installation and planted in March 2022. It’s amazing to see how in only just a couple of months the planting is already looking full and vibrant - see below some pictures of the finished areas as well as a short video showing one of the two leveled gardens.
