Giants' Game of Marbles

This low maintenance garden has a playful aesthetic even though it stylistically speaks to a contemporary London courtyard design. An allee of 'Slender Silhouette' liquidambars creates structure and connects the garden visually to the two-story house. The concrete spheres and globose abelia shrubs add a bit of whimsy to the gravel substrate. A dining area is in the back, elevated one step for separation, close to a small kitchen in the garage. Immersive plantings around the perimeter create a tranquil refuge in the middle of the city.
